QUESTIONS FOR POTENTIAL CUSTOMERS:

- Are you interested in buying fuel cards with Bitcoin?
- What brands would you like to see?
- What denominations?
- How much of a markup do you feel is reasonable? (Keep in mind most fuel companies charge several dollars per card in fees and shipping, I must cover this, shipping to you, and make a profit, with my markup.)

A 3% reload fee and $10 minimum amount aren't bad, I will probably end up trying this, just to have a simple option to get gas if I don't have any cash sometime.
How long do you plan on doing this though? For the foreseeable future? What if it wasn't extremely successful and only a couple people bought and frequently used the cards, would you still do it for them? And why the moderated thread?

Answer these questions and I will most likely buy one.

I don't see a problem with reloading them for the foreseeable future. The less people who are doing it, the less of a burden it is right? I can promise this: I WILL notify my customers if I stop the service, so you won't be depositing money and not hearing from me.

The moderated thread just made me feel better, but on second thought, I can see how it might make buyers uncomfortable. I can make an moderated thread if it's a problem. Eventually, I plan on creating a website if there is enough demand for the service.

EDIT: I made a new un-moderated thread.
