Title: Proxy buy and sell bitcoins Post by: Garrett Burgwardt on May 02, 2011, 09:02:08 PM Hello everyone - I'd like to announce that I will gladly accept either checks in exchange for bitcoins or bitcoins in exchange for checks.
Essentially, anyone that would like to mail me a check in exchange for bitcoins may do so, and provide an email address along with the check. When the check clears to my account, I will put the money into Mt. Gox or otherwise purchase as many bitcoins as I can at market value and query the email address for a bitcoin address. There is a transaction 4% fee with this method. (IE I buy 100 bitcoins, I would keep 4 of them as a fee) For anyone that wants mtgox for a check in the mail, I'll send mtgox USD in exchange for checks at 1.04 USD per mtgusd, same process as above. For anyone that would like to receive a check for bitcoins (or mtgox USD), they may transfer them to an address I would provide. As soon as they confirm, I'll sell them and write off a check for however much they sold for -4%, and would mail it off the next day. For all transactions that involve me mailing a check: There is a $5 or equivalent btc cover charge so that I can pay for certified mail. I don't want checks getting lost in the mail like other cash in the mail services. Anyone interested should PM me to get the ball rolling :) Title: Re: Proxy buy and sell bitcoins Post by: FreeMoney on May 02, 2011, 09:45:02 PM Hello everyone - I'd like to announce that I will gladly accept either checks in exchange for bitcoins or bitcoins in exchange for checks.

When the check clears to my account, I will put the money into Mt. Gox or otherwise purchase as many bitcoins as I can at market value and query the email address for a bitcoin address. There is a transaction fee of 2% with this method. (IE I buy 100 bitcoins, I would keep 2 of them as a fee) For anyone that would like to receive a check for bitcoins (or mtgox USD), they may transfer them to an address I would provide. As soon as they confirm, I'll sell them and write off a check for however much they sold for -2%, and would mail it off the next day. Anyone interested should PM me to get the ball rolling :) That's great. You might want to give people the option to get MtGox USD from you so they can buy for themselves. Some people don't know you can transfer easily. https://mtgox.com/users/sendMoney Title: Re: Proxy buy and sell bitcoins Post by: Garrett Burgwardt on May 02, 2011, 09:47:36 PM Hadn't thought of that, but I did know of the link. I'll add that option, I suppose :)
Title: Re: Proxy buy and sell bitcoins Post by: Garrett Burgwardt on May 03, 2011, 01:59:43 PM Increased fees to make it worth my time - as business picks up I'll make it cheaper, but until that happens it isn't worth my time with only a 2% cover (especially given the price of certified postage).

Still available! For those that are in the USA this is a pretty good option. As an added bonus, I'll rate you on bitcoin-otc if you're registered! :) |
