Title: [WTB] Bitcoins - UK bank transfer only
Post by: Gatekeeper on February 11, 2013, 10:19:22 AM
I'm looking to buy about 50-100btc, payment via online instant bank transfer. Obviously i am new here so i'm happy to buy in very small steps, as small as you feel comfortable with, but the btc must be sent first.

Im willing to pay the Mt.Gox price on the buying side -6%, so about £14.10 as it stands just now

Hi,
I can sell you this amount of BTC - via bank transfer.

Please note - the 'norm' here is that the less trusted party sends first. You are a relative 'newbie' so its unlikely that anyone will send you 50BTC first.

You can look up how trusted a seller is by checking their profile on OTC or asking around here on the forums.
I have been trading bitcoins for over 6 months and have many satisfied customers who can vouch for me.
The other way to trade is to meet face to face and deal in person. If you can get to central London then we could do that.

If you are interested in buying from me please PM. I look forward to hearing from you.

Just to be clear, i'm not expecting nor asking anyone to send me 50btc in one go blindly, that's why i said i'm happy to go up from very small amounts, whatever the other person feels comfortable with, we can do 0.1btc at a time if they so wish, but i certainly won't send a bank transfer to any Tom, Dick or Harry who says they have coins.

Why not use escrow?

i'm not sure how to do that for btc trades but would be open to using it if i felt 100% safe with whoever or whatever is acting as the escrow. So far i've done about 6 trades with a couple of vendors and escrow has never been needed, I would need help setting it up if it was required.I wouldn't feel great putting it in escrow with someone or some company i've never heard of or dealt with before, but if it had solid reviews and recommendations then yeah not a problem, but obviously the escrow person could scam both the coins and my cash lol

@tenakha if you can do £14 a coin then i'll pm you

Silk Road is not the same as here.

it's quite simple isn't it, i'm happy to do small amounts or if i can find someone willing to sell at £14 i would send first for a trusted vendor.

you all act like it's some major thing, but i don't consider someone sending first in tiny amounts to be unfair. You make it seem like i'm asking people to send hundreds of coins first when i'm not

If anyone thinks i'll send a bank transfer first to some guy who just says "yeah i've got coins send me all your cash" then they are crazy.
Thank you for your pointless post AnonX, people like you just waste other peoples time by saying stupid things, i didn't say i want someone to send me 100btc first, try to read things properly before jumping into someones thread to leave a stupid reply.

Fully up and running on bitcoin-otc now, paying £14.50 per coin

Hi GateKeeper,

I have coins in stock, but again, you are going to find it very hard to buy below 'spot'. Most people here are traders and we jump through hoops to source coins.
My rate is mtgox +5% (for today). I will start by selling you one coin, and will go first.
PM me to proceed.

Best regards

thanks for the offer tenakha but i'm looking for buying sources too, i'm not looking to buy from a trader, i'm looking to buy from individuals and miners just the same as you do and the average price i would say is 2.5-5% below spot. I'm not looking to buy from a trader above spot.

Im paying £15.50 per coin now for anyone looking to sell.

Hi, I'm in UK, I can sell you 20 Bitcoins. PM if interested.

Are you still buying?
I'm looking to sell upto 20BTC using bank transfer. I'll happily use escrow with a reputable person on here and provide you with my phone/email if you want to text/phone/speak before hand.

I'm happy, at the moment, to do £16 per BTC, or if the price varies a fair bit we work on it.
