Title: Buy anything with BTC through me. :)
Post by: steelboy on July 30, 2013, 01:21:59 PM
Hi

I was looking into ways of buying things from the Internet with BTC and it seems that services like Btc4amazon are doing quite well. Problem is that they are going to all the trouble of setting up the site and the  bank accounts are getting closed.

I am happy to offer the same service. I expect to start small first of all as I build up trust but that's fine by me.

If anyone is interested I will do the first few purchases for a non profit basis. As long as I cover my costs I am happy.

Hit me up with a PM or post in the thread if you want and let's see if anyone is interested. The way it will work is you let me know what you want, I will buy it from the site you found it and have it delivered to you. Bitcoins will ideally be held in escrow. (This will incur a small fee from the escrow service) As soon as it is confirmed delivered the BTC will be released to me. Very simple. :)

Any comments or questions please post below.

SB

What kind of limits would your service place on total item value? For example would you be willing to escrow payment for one of these until delivery (est. October): http://formlabs.com/

Well, I suppose so. But I would like to get a few tx under my belt to see how smoothly this goes.

Regarding preordering there would need to be a few clauses too. What happens if there is a delay? What happens on a no show? The price is not really the issue just the uncertainty of it all.

Thanks for showing an interest though. :)

Are you OK with buying first from people with more rep than you?

He probably means if it is ok if you go first if the other person has more trust than you do.

Ah I see. You mean not using escrow if the buyer has a high level of trust?

I suppose that would be fine as long as it was a very trusted member. (Like yourself TF ;) )

I have sent you a PM regarding this. Let me know if you are ok with posting our conversation on this thread. I feel the more open the transaction the better. :)
