Title: Cherry MX keycap clear-out - I take ฿ BTC
Post by: inlikeflynn on Tue, 06 September 2011, 10:04:40

I'm clearing out a lot of my extra Cherry MX keycaps and will be listing them all for sale in this thread.

Initially I will take ฿ BTC only up to 9/7 11PM CDT (GMT/UTC - 5:00).
If an item has not been purchased with ฿ BTC by that time, PayPal can then be used. You can PM me an offer anytime about using PayPal and I will put you on the list, but I will not confirm you are the winner and take PayPal payment until after 9/7 11PM CDT.
Because ฿ BTC is preferred, it will get a discount as you can see below (at least based on the exchange rate at time of this initial post).

If you buy more than 1 item, I will combine and reduce shipping

• Cherry MX RED WASD keycaps SOLD
  -฿ BTC first PM = Ekaros
  -PayPal first PM= N/A

I'll take the linux doubleshots if no one buys them with BTC. I'd pay $10 shipped if I don't have to wait :)

Did BTC drop by that much already?

Yes I will ship outside of the US. You can estimate the shipping cost with it coming from area code 55330

yea it has, and at the moment its even a better deal here to use BTC than when I first started writing this post up last night.

No laundering here, just my attempt to try and use an alternative currency to PayPal here at geekhack and get myself a couple more coins in the process.

p.s. you'd be 4th in line already anyways for the Tux keys using PayPal. No line cutting here, even for the number 1 keyboard expert, unless of course you have BTC and then cut to the front and win :biggrin1:

But what if you use other means to launder your drug money?  Anyhoo, I'm only interested in the Penguin keys so will wait.

I offer 1.4015(minus fee, my entire balance) for item 1# if shipped to Finland. If more is needed I have to start mining something...

blue and orange gamer kit with paypal if possible

will combining them make the price lower since there is no reason to pay for shipping twice?

Title: Cherry MX keycap clear-out - I take ฿ BTC
Post by: inlikeflynn on Tue, 06 September 2011, 17:05:48

Added you demik so that, you are first on the PayPal list if not sold with ฿ BTC prior to the cutoff date. Please PM me you zip code so I can estimate the combined shipping.

1st post also updated with sold and pending items.

1st post updated.

Items #1 & #6 are officially sold and paid for with ฿ BTC, thank you very much to those guys.

Items #3, #4, & #5 all have their 1st PayPal PM listed above. So if no one else comes along and pays in ฿ BTC prior to the cutoff date, they will be the winners.

Only the 2 Red Esc keys & the FILCO keycap puller remain. I'm open to offers on the keycap puller

Thanks everyone else for the sale!

BitCoin doesn't work at all.
Remember, Bernie Madoff made it decades with completely satisfied clients, until he ran out of other people's money to pass around.

Beware the GipCoin.

I've always wondered why people start Ponzi schemes.  There really is no successful way to get out once you start unless you can fool people for long enough that you die before you're discovered.

Another "successful" Ponzi scheme, according to Rick Perry, is Social Security.  They've been running that one since around the Great Depression.  I wonder what retirees think about that.

Its ok, i'll threadcrap my own thread now that almost everything is sold :-)

And add a BTC Ponzi/pyramid scheme to the list: http://bitcoinpyramid.com/    (I don't use this site myself or encourage anyone else to either)

I like Ponzu schemes myself.

Tasty!

We should stop this right here right now.  Threadcrapping a classifieds IS a bannable offense at OCN and HardForum.

Hey Ripster, here is a physical BitCoin you can use with your RipOmeter:

Quote from: ripster;412845

OP controls the thread in my book.

BitCoin sounds about as liquid an asset as RipOmeter (http://geekhack.org/showwiki.php?title=Island:6189) at Deskthority.net.

But then I let my CPA launder my money so what do I know?

Actually they are solid brass.  They are 1.125 inches in diameter and weigh about 7.5 grams.  Compare to a US half dollar at 1.2 inches and about 11 grams.

Can you tell your buddies at AAPL to revive the Fingerworks Touchstream LP keyboard ? It's a real shame they discontinued it.
