Topic: [WTS] Kialara 2014 Original .1BTC (#276/2500) UNFUNDED (Read 440 times)

FYI - I have posted this item within a new AUCTION along with a second lot.

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.63631160

The ones I was referencing prices directly in my previous post were actual sold items, just not necessarily sales that took place through the forums here. Those posts contained the discussion referencing the final sales prices with descriptions etc, within the posted pictures in the thread. I believe some referenced were from sales on eBay, but a sale is a sale I guess. Not claiming it must correlate with what people here are willing to pay, but at least it lends some legitimacy to the specific historical value of this particular item, IMO.

Thanks much for your continued helpful input/opinions though brother.

ok yea - I saw those two threads but both of those remain unsold. I was referencing ones actually sold.

Mopar - Took a bit longer than planned to post this stuff, my apologies. But I do believe I am going to set up an auction for this piece as well as the other Kialara I was planning to sell.

Curious...Anyone think there's anything wrong with doing basically a short 24-48 hr auction since likely most of the people who may bid on this item have already seen that it is a WTS from me here?

Nice piece. I think people would participate if auctioned with Miner Jones.

Definitely could be the case, esp if just looking at sales of this item that have been completed solely on these forums… I will surely get the links posted soon, and I am positive that the items sold I was referencing were actually this particular version of coin, but not positive that all necessarily were deals completed on these forums.

All things considered, I don’t believe this post has been up for even 48 hours yet, so I’m not in a rush necessarily to cut my potential sale price all the way down to a level where it’s an absolute obvious buy for everyone…

Edit: Just to clarify, the sales prices I referenced above were prices I saw on these forums, I’m just not positive that they were sales made on the forums, as some I believe were pictures shared on here of previously completed sales, potentially elsewhere.

at .075 you are still near double the price the last few here on forums have sold - there have been kialaras that sold for more but I do not think it is this version - that is why I want to see the threads you were looking at it - I am fine if I am wrong

an auction might be the best option.

No problem, as soon as I get back in front of my computer I will link the threads that I was referencing here.

I am willing to at least come down a good chunk from my original wishful $figure - if there is anyone interested in a deal for around .075 btc or so, I would be satisfied and willing to make that happen at this point!

can you link these threads you have found and are mentioning? are they for this particular kialara or other kialaras? there are quite a few different ones.

I searched for this particular kialara in sales here and found 2 - one listing had no price but that it had sold the other was an auction and those were in 2023.

there were a few other sales further back but none of them near the 6500 you were asking.

Thanks for the whitelisting Cyrus!

Mopar/rs/ALL - Thanks for your responses… I definitely realize I may be reaching quite a bit, and .15 is pretty ambitious, to say the least. Looking into it further, I must admit I was further off than initially thought on the potential sale price for this. Not the end of the world, I am happy to come to a final, fair agreement with someone on here eventually.

When doing some initial research, I found some threads originating on here that previously discussed the potential* value for these pieces at around $4k (possibly based off of sales on eBay?) - but I also know that a random person can come up with any perceived value they’d like, and that this isn’t exactly as good a marker as a previous completed sale through here. This was also some time ago, so I expected a possible bump in value since then.

Upon further digging, another thread on here showing some actual 2013 2023 sales numbers of a few of these had final numbers at $3,000/$2,429/$2,350.

$2,367.94 end of 2021 in an auction.

Only posting these numbers here for reference, obviously anyone buying this has their own idea on price and can do their own research.

Having said all that, I do hope to get a bit more than currently on offer here, but I also did not post this for sale to end up simply taking it down and moving on. I very much prefer to sell this here, to someone in this community, rather than squeeze out a bit more selling somewhere like eBay etc.

Definitely not trying to waste anyone’s time with unrealistic or unreasonable expectations. I fully anticipate that an acceptable offer will come about through here, and hopefully make someone very happy with their new collectible!
Please let me know if any of you are willing to come up some more in price, and thanks for your time and offers so far!

I am more in line with Mopars thinking,  the 1st number that came to mind when i saw it was $1,200 tip top $1,400. but of course everyone has their own opinion on price in this matter.

I've whitelisted you, newbie  restrictions have been reduced. You should've also received a confirmation PM.
Beautiful piece btw! Good luck with sale.

.15 is far far above any that have sold here recently the last one went for about .0285 BTC (about 1200 usd value) a few months back.

Was finally able to reply to your PM but it looks like I am also limited to a laughable number of PMs each day, as well as the 1 message hourly limit lol - no big deal, I am fine with discussing this all within the main thread if you are.

I would love to get around .15 btc (or more  )  for this item - but, as always, things like this are negotiable - I have seen some of these go for more, some for less. These just really do not go up for sale all that often considering how many there are in existence, so there isn't really a historically accurate price to base things off of, from what I can find.

Let me know if we are golden at that number, or way far apart - either way, thanks for your interest and I look forward to making a deal here with you, or someone equally interested in obtaining one of these if we are not on the same page... Hopefully we are!

*edited for spelling

How much, I want it. Lol I sent pm , but if you are limited to how many you can send then let’s deal right here , im ready to go how much you need ,  btc or Venmo or PayPal. Your call . We can use miner jones as escrow

Thank you sir! The various Kialara creations are definitely my top choice when it comes to physical Bitcoins as well...
Once a potential buyer and I have finalized a deal, I would be more than happy to use your escrow services to facilitate the transaction. From what I have seen and read, you come highly recommended.

---

Apologies to anyone I have not replied to directly yet, as there is a limit on how many direct messages I can send per hour.

I can say, however, that I greatly appreciate the offers I have received so far... But I do believe that based off prior sales I have seen, and what I expect this item can fetch, I am waiting for a more substantial offer at this point.  If you're waiting on a direct message still from me, I will definitely respond to everyone, but assume that any offer that has been made so far is not an amount I plan to accept at this point in time.

I look forward to any other interest, and to coming to an agreeable deal with someone who will appreciate this item as I do!

Since I did not specify, I very much prefer that final payment will be made in bitcoin, but other options can be discussed if necessary. Miner Jones will be used for escrow services.

Thanks to all of you so far!

At a decade old now, these are more pieces of art than wallet.
The artistry that went into these at a time when coins were the rage shows

None were sold loaded as far as I know.
There was no silver in these first iterations of this bar, as the coin was steel....but was swapped out for a silver or 14k gold one for the next release which was an updated version of this bar

oh man and its a "76" and a "276" to boot - my favorite numbers - sadly the only time I could afford one of these would have been when they originally sold for a few hundred bucks

glws

Wow! why these are your favorite? were these ever sold loaded? Do these have any silver in it?

One of my favorite physical cryptos!
Happy to help with any logistics/escrow services
