Title: Where to sell BTC without using exchange Post by: jonanon on November 28, 2013, 12:31:06 PM Being relatively new to the world of bitcoin can anyone advise where I can sell my BTC without using an exchange?
I don't wish to sell now but would like to know options for the future? The exchanges I use for trading tend to charge a huge % for withdrawals and can take ages to get. Any ideas? :-\ Title: Re: Where to sell BTC without using exchange Post by: hieroglyph on December 02, 2013, 10:52:29 PM There is a site called localbitcoins where you can sell your coins to other people looking to acquire them in your general area. I'd say it is right up your alley.

It's really great, you can buy Bitcoins within a few seconds and sell them fast too ;).

But I think the easiest and most comfortable method of buying/selling btc is with people you know. Title: Re: Where to sell BTC without using exchange Post by: aryer84 on December 03, 2013, 02:10:52 AM i do all my exchanges in person @ coffee shops
make sure you know what fake currency looks like Title: Re: Where to sell BTC without using exchange Post by: sandrig on December 03, 2013, 03:42:27 AM I've sold Bitcoins several times on LocalBitcoins and found it to work really well. I did two transactions in person and four transactions as "cash by mail". All of them when off without a hitch. I also like that you can use a formula for your sale price. For example, 8% above Bitstamp.

localbitcoins really helpful I used it for tons of trades already! Previous time when liberty reserve was active then same concept as LBC also working as exchangezone but they works only for LR but now they both gone forever anyways BTCs for localbitcoins really good work Title: Re: Where to sell BTC without using exchange Post by: PenAndPaper on December 03, 2013, 01:56:23 PM i do all my exchanges in person @ coffee shops make sure you know what fake currency looks like fake money can fool even the most experienced people. You need special gear like some markers that detect fakes and even those fail sometimes.

Title: Re: Where to sell BTC without using exchange Post by: RiddlerOne on December 03, 2013, 07:45:12 PM Localbitcoin is by far the best option. I have completed 100s of transactions recently without a hitch via EMT/Western and Face to face Transactions at the local starbucks (which by the way is a great way of meeting fellow BTC enthusiasts!)
Good Luck! |
