Title: Got 0.0004 BTC, want PayPal
Post by: |BitcoinZ| on December 17, 2017, 05:51:31 AM
Hey guys, just found 0.0004 BTC in my Coinbase account which I haven't used in over a year (I'm not much into crypto these days).
Apparently it's now worth around $8.74  ;D
Was wondering if anyone wants to send some money to my PayPal in return for the 0.0004 BTC?
I don't mind going first.
Thanks!

EDIT: I'd be happy with $5 PayPal if sent as gift or around $6 if I pay the fees  :)

hi

I have only block chain info wallet

so possible send your wallet to my block chain wallet without high fees?

as if fees high then its worthless to transfer such low coins amount

Hi, I understand transaction fees are higher these days and I don't know how much it will be for this one.
I don't mind just sending you the coins, see how much you get and how much you can send to my PayPal.
If most of the 0.0004 gets eaten up by fees, I'm happy to let you keep whatever you receive for free, you don't have to send me any money :)

Let me know if you're up for it, I can send you the coins now. Thanks

Haven't heard from Gameristo yet, probably sleeping  :D
Anyone else would like to do this, post here or pm. There is no risk whatsoever for the buyer, I'll send first  ;)

Hi, I have 0.0004 BTC in an old Coinbase account worth around $8.
I send you the BTC first and then you send some money to my PayPal depending on how much you receive.
Let me know if you wanna do it, thanks  :)

Hello,

I'm not familiar with Coinbase wallet, actually.
Does Coinbase have internal transfer function?
If not, please send the Bitcoin to this address:

Please leave me your PP address, I'll send $5 over to you once I get 1 confirmation.

Thanks.

Yes it possible to transfer between Coinbase wallets, it's actually preferable since there is no fee for internal transfers.
I can send to the above address instead though if you want, let me know thanks

WOW, I'm flabbergasted!!!   :o

I just tried to send you the BTC and it's telling me that the fees for sending $8 worth of Bitcoin is ~$17 ??  ???
I haven't dealt with anything Bitcoin related for about a year but damn, this used to be free, I remember I used to send BTC from my coinbase wallet to external wallets without incurring any fees. Apparently now fees apply to internal transfers as well, wow.
So basically I can't do anything with those $8 BTC lol. Oh well, was worth a try.

I sincerely apologize for wasting your time, I had no idea network fees had gone up this much  :(

Hello,

Maybe you can try sending via email?
It shows 0 fees on my side.

Thanks.

I can try your address but it seems that the fees apply to every transaction now. I tried sending to his non-Coinbase address and it still showed the same ~$17 fees.

So how the hell do people deal with small amounts these days?? what if I wanna buy something that costs $5, do I have to pay like $20 for something that costs $5???

Ah ok I was just reading about that on the Coinbase website, yeah it says no fees for internal transfers. I've never tried sending by email.

I'll trying again to send it to you using your email this time. Please bear with me
