.1 Bitcoin for deposit to the wallet of your choice.

US $60.00
Approximately EUR 53.21

Postage: US $5.00 (approx. EUR 4.43)

9 sold.
Buyers info seems to be private, so i can't look at reviews.

.1 Bitcoin that we have mined deposited to the wallet of your choice. 
You will be receiving a paper wallet in the mail with the amount you purchased on it. 
You can then sweep it into the wallet of your choice.

I am confused!
is he selling a paper wallet which contains 0.1BTC (which is worth $23) for $60 ?
is it right or am I reading this wrong?

He is selling an empty paper wallet.

No, he is selling 0.1 but he didn't put the 0 in a front, he has listed only .1 so if you are in a hurry and you are not paying an attention or you don't know too much about Bitcoin you would get screwed. He has also put a title very in a very smart way, so you would have this dot omitted.

So he is basically listing 0.1 for double the price. It should be max $30 and he is charging it $60. A very smart scam if you ask me.
