Oh! I never received the "50 Trillion" banknote advertised in OP
since CurrentB was gone for a year I did not complain but now seems to be the appropriate time to mention this.
I challenge his claim.

I just wanted to say that I purchased a 4 note set from CurrentB that arrived today. They were well protected and shipped fast.

Thanks very much.   Smiley

not really. no war. competition is good. I'll try not to start any destructive spiral of lowering prices.
my correction last week was due to recent inventory exercise of mine and that we sell more or less at the same price is a coincidence. I think I do enough to distinguish myself by using bitcoin images on the post stamp and that I do only one type of the Z$ bill. And my Z $ exchange is older (my oldest otc ratings are from early 2011)
And also use #bitcoin-otc occasionally (if you see ptmhd around on irc, ask for 5% discount ; ) and bitmit and most other forums.

I just thought it is funny due to the original inflationary problems with that currency.

Price war ?  Grin

I don't know about hyperdeflated. Bitcoin inflation for the past year is something like 40% isn't it?

Kind of funny actually seeing this thread. I was just telling a friend two days ago about hyperinflation and the Zimbabwe 1 Billion note is what I used as an example.

a Zimbabwe 100trillion dollar bill is worth about 2.7GBP

Very cool. A piece of history.

Anyone got any German Weimar Republic Papiermark for sale?

Haha, I wish, that would be awesome! I do have some Yugoslav Dinar 500 Billions, and soon I'll have more of those denominations. I'll update the OP with info on them tomorrow.

Also I think I need your address, as well as well as Chemicalbro's.

Thanks all for participating in the contest! Your notes will be shipped tomorrow!

Welcome fellow bitcoiners. I am selling Zimbabwean banknotes. Searches show me that these are sold sporadically around here and I'm sure many of you guys, being exotic currency buffs, know about these, but for those who don't, during the 2000s, Zimbabwe went through some pretty bad hyperinflation which culminated in the printing numerous successively larger bills. In 2006 the Central Bank of Zimbabwe released a new currency slashing 3 zeros from the old one. This happened again in 2008, this time 10 more zeros were slashed, resulting in the new series, which I bring to you here, which ultimately reached the 100 Trillion denomination.

You can read more about this here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperinflation_in_Zimbabwe

To be clear, these are officially worthless as the Zimbabwean government abandoned their use in favor of foreign currencies. But they still have value for collectors.

They make great bookmarks, tips, and gifts! Great to always have one in the wallet.

To buy a stuff from me, PM or email me ( jjttjj@gmailcom ). Include your name and shipping address, and what you'd like to order.

Other Stuff:
  • Shipping is free for all US orders. Add http://btcticker.appspot.com/mtgox/3.00usd.png for shipping to Canada,  http://btcticker.appspot.com/mtgox/4.00usd.png  for shipping anywhere else.
  • I ship things out fast, all orders will be in the mail within one business day.
  • All note's are from the "Third Zimbabwe Dollar", the series which is labeled 2007 or 2008.
  • Single note orders come in a semi-rigid currency holder. If you order multiple notes, you notes will come six in each holder, so if you order 5 you'll get one currency holder if you order 7 you'll get two. Additional holders are available for http://irage.ca/2btc.php?a=.8&c=USD each.

Prices for 100 Trillion banknotes:
1 banknote: http://btcticker.appspot.com/mtgox/6.95usd.png
5 banknotes: http://btcticker.appspot.com/mtgox/29.25usd.png
10 banknotes: http://btcticker.appspot.com/mtgox/48.50usd.png
--Will match any other price on these forums--

I also have the following denominations available (images below, all are mint condition except where otherwise noted) :
Fifty Trillion
Ten Trillion
Twenty Billion
Five Billion
One Billion
Five Hundred Million
Two Hundred Million
One Hundred Million Rare!
Fifty Million
Five Hundred Thousand
One Thousand Dollar (Circulated)
Twenty Dollar (Circulated)
Ten Dollar (Circulated)
Five Dollar (Circulated)
One Dollar

Prices for these all of these are the same, except for the $100 millions:
1 banknote:  http://btcticker.appspot.com/mtgox/3.50usd.png
5 banknotes:  http://btcticker.appspot.com/mtgox/13.50usd.png
10 banknotes:  http://btcticker.appspot.com/mtgox/20.50usd.png

Feel free to mix and match!

You can also get One Of Each of the above listed notes for: http://btcticker.appspot.com/mtgox/40.50usd.pnghttp://(This is a 16 note set, from Z$1 - Z$100 trillion)

In order to get the ball rolling here and build some minimal trust, I will give away 1 free 100 Trillion dollar bills to the first 2 people to respond to this thread, and 1 free 50 trillion dollar bill to the following 3 people to respond after that! Just respond, confirm your spot, then PM me your address. Contest over, awards claimed.
