Title: Want to buy $28 worth of BTC with Paypal
Post by: DATA COMMANDER on April 22, 2011, 08:47:15 PM
I tried to spend $50 on Coinpal but I didn't RTFM.

Reply or PM with email address, price, and reason(s) to trust you. :)

People will never learn. The issue here is whether to trust you - since you offer Paypal with its chargebacks. Also, a newcomer.

Well, how in the heck am I supposed to get BTC? Coinpal let me buy 15. I am not going to "chargeback" them. (I don't even know what a chargeback is, but I can surmise.)

Ok, reply to this thread or PM me with a reason for me to trust you and a way that I can convince you to trust me!

its much riskier for the seller of BTC to accept a paypal payment because of chargebacks vs a buyer of BTC trusting the seller with not scamming.

if you don't know what a chargeback is, google it. http://lmgtfy.com/?q=paypal+chargeback

and when you promise 28$, do not send 26.89$ (because of fees) with a method of payment allowing chargebacks... I issued you a refund but please be smart. I SPECIFICALLY said that you were responsible for fees too.

Payment owed and gift are the 2 ways I think that have no or minimal fees, as well as not being able to be chargebacked AFAIK

Send me a PayPal gift of $50 and I'll send you 33 BTC. I'm taking a risk in doing this---the surcharge is to make that risk worth my while.

EDIT: wait, you said $28 worth. Send me $28 and I'll send you 17 BTC. Send to ian.maxwell@gmail.com and post here.

I'm not offering you any reason to trust me---if you don't, don't do it.

Sorry...I already apologized via PM. I didn't know that Paypal has hidden fees.

I take it the $28 went through this time with no fee? FWIW, I haven't received the 20 BTC yet.
