Title: [Pizza4BTC] The official Pizza for Bitcoin service thread!
Post by: MRKLYE on August 28, 2014, 06:24:14 AM
Ok folks. I would like to start something on the forums here.

Many times people have BTC but no Fiat.. And are hungry.

What I am proposing is that this is a thread for people to link up to perform pizza4BTC trades!

If you would like to help people eat, and have a credit card. You should be able to trade pizza orders for that amount in BTC.



For example: I am looking for a pizza right now as I have not eaten all day. Looking for a trusted member in north america to call in a pizza order for me before 2am (It's 1:23am now) and allow me to pay them back in BTC.

Cheers!

Kyle.T

*Ahh, It's almost to late to order pizza now... Thanks anyways BTC land. :/

Have you stayed hungry this night?
This is an interesting service, but you might add the calling price and the time spent to order.
I can help to someone in Bulgaria if hungry and having only bitcoins, If someone interested from my region please contact me via pm :)

If I would order pizza for you how would I pay it?
At least in my country pizza deliveries are paid with cash or card when they arrive to customers.

I did go hungry tonight, but that doesn't matter in the long run.

The idea behind this thread is to link up people that have BTC but no fiat and want pizza.
I expect that most people should tip whomever is buying them pizza for their time and effort. I always have.

Thank you Gondel for offering help to those in your country with ordering!

The method I have used in the past is the buyer uses a credit card to pay and the user requesting the pizza pays the amount + a tip in BTC.

Hopefully we can get Pizza4BTC running. Escrow is a good idea generally but I have ordered more than a few pizzas from trusted people online without it in the past. The reason that people buying the pizza should be trusted is that you should never give your address / phone number to an unknown persons online.

Cheers all,

Kyle.T

Anyone willing to purchase me a pizza tonight and allow me to pay them tomorrow when my signature campaign pays out?
I should be given .12 BTC tomorrow through the win88.me signature campaign and I have not eaten for a day.
Work starts on Tuesday and the hope is to purchase a large 10 topping pizza for 13.99$ and eat it over the course of the next 3 days.

If anyone is willing to help me out please post below or PM. You will need a credit card in order to pay for the order via phone after the order has been created.

Type of Pizza:

If a trusted member is willing to do this for me I will PM them my store location as well as my delivery address.

Thank you,

Kyle.T

Your reputation is an amazing read. The fact that you post a picture of your face makes me want to feed you a pizza. I've got the next one if somebody's hungry.

Hiding anonymously makes no sense to me to be honest. Albeit I have made some terrible decisions in my time I will never try to hide who I am or what I have done. Starting work on Tuesday is a positive step towards me paying back my investors. If BTC price continues on this downward trend it will make it easier as well!

I like the idea of people helping others acquire pizza if they need it. It's a kind gesture and what may just be a pizza to one may mean the world to another. That being said I hope this thread gets used by many people and those that receive pizza pay it back as well as forward.

I think this initiative is also meant to help people get bitcoins themselves. Instead of doing all the paperwork and stuff over at coinbase, they could just buy pizza for people and receive bitcoins.

That doesn't work in all countries (including mine) it seems.

Well when you put it that way, that's pretty cool.  Who confirms the trust of the pizza buyer?  I'm happy to contribute for the USA. Have bitcoin, want pizza?  PM me!  I'm willing to do escrow too!

I like the idea but I'm not sure I like the idea of using my credit card for fear of some kind of fraudulent act taking place after the deal is done.  I'm not saying it's even possible but it does come to mind, to me anyway.  I do like the idea and wish more more ideas like this are common in the future.  Every site I've seen for the most part sketchy or seemingly way overpriced.

Never give out your credit card information to anyone other than a trusted business!

Personally I have had a friend order me Pizza with his credit card numerous times from dominos and never once had a problem.
I do agree that due diligence should be had when ordering Pizza4BTC. But it is my hope that no party will exploit the other.

Also thank you to the guy offering pizza and escrow 2 posts above!

Looking for a pizza order folks! Any trusted members have a credit card they'd be willing to phone in to dominos with for me and I pay them in BTC for the order? Been trying for a few hours now on PRC (https://prcdice.eu?af=KLYE) but to no avail..

I've got BTC to pay for the order and would send first to a well respected / trusted member. :)
