Bitcoin Forum

hey guys, i only have $2 left on my paypal and im trying to get btc but i dont know how to get $2 worth of btc..lol
if anyone knows how i can get $2 worth of btc or doge via paypal or creditcard pls let me know! and if someone wouldnt mind trading me pm me! its such a small amount that nobody has to worry about getting scammed!

ok so i have a differnet offer for you guys! anyone who loans me .01 btc i will give them .015 btc by friday! i just cant buy btc until then, i have no collateral but if someones willing to take a $4 chance on me you wont be sorry i will have you paid off by friday!

you can use http://www.bitcoininsanity.com/ for this ...

Hey there, I suppose your best bet is to meet up with someone in person.  If you live near a major metropolitan area this shouldn't be too hard.  The site bitcoinslocally probably will help you.  Alternatively, there are trading boards on this forum.  I haven't traded on here but given the size and popularity of this forum, somone probably takes paypal.  Good luck!

thanks guys!

I looked at the site, and it's not clear how they avoid being ripped off with charge-backs.
Any idea how they actually control/avoid fraud?

Go to eBay and search 261391700982. 

I bought my first bitcoin from this person before I had all my online accounts verified so I could purchase direct.

good question esp. since thier prices are outragous!

Ill give you 2 worth of doge

how much doge is that atm?

Use VirWox. First convert the PP USD to SLL, and then convert the SLL to Bitcoins. Withdraw the coins to your address. The site is quite reliable, and has been there for almost 2 years now.  ;D

i agree thats usually how i do it but i think you need to buy/sell atleast .02 btc at a min., otherwise id use it! the fees are quite high but they are reliable and near instant..thanks!

ASK FOR $2 WORTH OF DOGE AND YOU SHALL RECIEVE

look at my sig!

This is the only site that I know that will allow you to buy BTC directly with PayPal.

They're limiting people to like 0.046 BTC / day for $25, which is actually like $20 worth of BTC..

So basically they're counting on the fact that there's not many ppl who are going to do chargeback fraud to make 20 bucks.

message me I will send you $2 worth of btc for nothing in return :)

ps.. this offer only stands for OP

now prepare for the flood of PMs asking for $2 btc for any reson, or no reason at all.

thanks guys its nice to  see ppl responding!

that would be awesome! ill trade you the $2 if you want!  ;D

Wow.. that is great. That will be almost BTC0.005 at today's exchange rate. And I fear that you will get hundreds of messages from beggars asking you to donate coins for them too.  ;D Anyway, the OP was hoping to finish off his Paypal balance... So I think he will linger a bit more here.

Right, I hope this generous soul doesn't get too spammed by no OPs asking for the same deal.  x8008 would be one of the most generous faucets in a long time :)

yea i still havent found a way to get $2 worth of btc via paypal...im pretty sure there is no way with such a small amount!

Paypal fee is higher than profit, not thanks.

Maybe just donate it when you get $2 worth of BTC donated by x8008?
I never used paypal, don't know whether there are charities taking paypal donations, but it should be the easiest way of getting rid of it.

Lol maybe we can make random BTC gift thread?  :)

i would if i ever got it..lol

So if the deal with x8008 did not work, I'd be willing to send you 0.00455 BTC which is around $2 at the moment (PM me your bitcoin address).
I expect you to donate your $2 to this charity:
http://www.vivaconagua.co.uk/
I'm not related to them in any way, just found them when I searched for paypal-accepting charities, and their goals (clean water for needy regions) should be generally agreeable unless you're a misanthropist.
Please post some kind of proof of donation (screenshot).

PS: Just noticed that they don't seem to have paypal donation info on their english page. You might have to go to the german pages to find the paypal donation button.

Interesting service, but 25% markup ? Dang!

I guess the high markup also relates to the risk of chargeback fraud they they're incurring.  I still haven't bought btc via credit card or paypal so it's interesting to me to hear about the state-of-affairs related to those kinds of purchases.  For btc to really thrive, at some point it will have to be easy for the common (wo)man to switch back and forth from fiat even for small amounts.

if a lot of people get scammed with this small amount of money you'll become very rich  ;D

Egopay + www.xmlgold.net (http://www.xmlgold.net) It's good for small amoounts. You can easily feed your Egopay with cash without even having to give out your real name. After that there are many exchangers to exchange your money. I sold some bitcoin with xml some days ago and it went smooth.

I don't think you can exchange 2 dollar on virwox, you need at least $10 I think

It looks like they charge a huge markup. For example they are selling 0.032 BTC for $25.00 that works out to be $781.25/BTC. Bitstamp is trading at $657.21/BTC right now, so as long as they are scammed out of less then 18% of their orders they will be fine. That with the fact that they only sell relatively small amounts they are likely not a huge target for scammers.
