Title: Playerauctions.com to exchange/accept bitcoin! Post by: Jrock on March 19, 2013, 12:52:53 PM http://www.playerauctions.com/news-detail/?id=1001
Sounds like they're going to be a place to buy/sell bitcoin and also accept bitcoin for payment for orders there. This is big news, not sure if it's posted yet. Title: Re: Playerauctions.com to exchange/accept bitcoin! Post by: Largo on March 19, 2013, 01:49:37 PM So what exactly can people do on that site now with bitcoin? (dont know the site and its not really clear)
Can they sell/buy items/currencys from all MMORPGs for bitcoin? EDIT: Looks like its something like Silkroad, with escrow etc, just for MMORPG accounts/items/credits, right? Nice! Title: Re: Playerauctions.com to exchange/accept bitcoin! Post by: Jrock on March 19, 2013, 07:25:38 PM Correct. You will now be able to buy anything from cd keys, game time, game accounts, game currency/items etc etc all via bitcoin.
Now as someone that sells on playerauctions from time to time I really hope I can receive payment as bitcoin from what I read though only sounds like you can pay with it. Have to wait and see when it's fully released. Title: Re: Playerauctions.com to exchange/accept bitcoin! Post by: just1nmc on April 07, 2013, 02:52:22 AM Bitcoin is accepted throughout their website right now. When you make a purchase, it shows up right next to credit card, paypal, and others.
Even better, Playerauctions list the total cost of your order as a base cost + fees. Bitcoin is noticeably cheaper to use to make your purchase than any other of the payment methods. On top of that, the bitcoin exchange is running with a few sellers, which you can find here: http://www.playerauctions.com/bitcoin-bitcoin/ (http://www.playerauctions.com/bitcoin-bitcoin/) This allows you to buy bitcoins with a credit card. Of course the prices are higher than other places, due to the lack of sellers, but it has been growing. There is also about a 5% fee for selling, so your price must be adjusted accordingly. |
