Title: What insurance do I have of receiving a product after paying bitcoins?
Post by: Thunderlight on July 20, 2011, 01:44:45 PM
So if I send Bitcoins to an address, what is to stop that company from keeping their product? Is the only trust held with the company?

Arrange with the dealer to use an escrow or don't buy.
