I havnt come across anyone that has delved into the collection of bitcoins, i had a fair look at it myself a few weeks back. I decided on buying physical though.
That video is pretty impressive the amount of work that is put into making the die.
I can see this coin making alot of controversy for the 'coin toss' prior to Sunday football games.
I recently tried an experiement to sell an item with exorbitant shipping costs but with a $1 'buy it now' listing.
Heres the message i got
It appears that eBay caught onto that loophole of higher shipping costs as a way around ebay final valuation fees.
This was on ebay au. However, this...

So he got them a while ago, like at least maybe 2 months ago. Who in their right mind orders bullion and waits for it to be delivered in a 5 month period without. Unless he is releasing it from his offshore bullion vault in the bahamas.
I'm not sure If that ecal fee calculator is right but when I ran through an item with a $1 buy it now and also testing with auction format with $900 shipping it spat out that ebay final valuation fees were $0.80 and PayPal fees $38, total $38.80. The other way round however with $900 buy it now...
Its great how the item description on those 1oz gold ABCs is kept to a minimum so the seller can explain that he didn't falsely advertise the item. A simple .999, Solid Gold, or Authentic tag would have made it a nicer sell.
Are you trying to stack big oz's or are you trying to shave off as much off spot so you can buy and sell for profiteering?
If it is the former, like salty lemon said, just buy from a LCS/dealer. If your nearest dealer is 100km away maybe you should try the bullionbourse or a sitesponsor.
Does anyone besides the firstmagestic site sell their bars? I had a quick google and couldnt find another dealer in Australia let alone the USA that sells their items..
