Bitcoin Forum

Hello.

I have a huge stock of iPhone 5s phones that I am looking to sell. They are all 32gb models and different colors (black, white, silver and gold).
They are all brand new, in original package.

Price is 0.5 BTC for each + shipping cost. I am mostly selling in Europe, but I can also work out with customers from elsewhere.

Bulk purchase deal: buy 10 iPhones, and each costs 0.47 BTC.

And of course...I am new here, no reputation or something, so I am willing to use any trusted escrow service on this forum.

Any questions? PM :)

Please post photos of some of the devices with a paper showing your username and the current date.

Ohh, very interesting indeed.
Any proof of ownership?

Yes photo's would be good. And not just one or 2, we need proof of your huge stock.

I am interested but you need to show some proof of ownership.  ;)

ok im going to call 100% fake on this one, someone who has never posted on our forums, offering deals way better than anywhere else, and the "newbies" all want in

and after the pictures happen then the question about escrow will come out


mines where in europe?

What will be the shipping cost to India if i buy 4 iphone's 32 gb
And what will be the total price including shipping?

Yeah yet another very lame scam attempt.

If this is for real, I will buy 2 right now!

if its real and you can proof of stock then i will buy 2-3 iphones

I want to buy one hope tht its not locked.

Okay guys! why is everyone implying here for OP to be scammer , he has already stated in his terms to use Escrow.
Why is that a problem, he might be a Troll though

Smelling that the iphone is locke on some carrier.

Is it first hand or second hand?

still 120$ is too less

Funny how so many people with cheap gadgets find this forum and have to start a brand new account to list them.

Not even any pictures this time and just because they say accepting escrow it doesn't mean they will because some people wont bother to use it.

100% scam until proven otherwise.

Agreed. The normal retail price for this is about $350-$450 minimum. This guy sells it for $125 and has like 10 of them.

Seems legit  ::) ::)

Exactly, its the same old story if it sounds too good to be true it usually is.

Lol true. The OP agreed to use an escrow though.

It's going to be interesting what it turns out

Lots of scammers offer escrow but when contacted try and avoid it or use a fake escrow.

They also know most people are greedy and are tempted with cheap stuff so on occasion someone will buy their non existent goods without escrow.

EDIT: Also people don't realise how difficult it is to obtain genuine Apple products to sell and there certainly isn't a massive mark-up on it.

Just found out that the OP's website and signature is a bitcoin generator site: btc4gen.com. Which are always legitimate to generate free bitcoins for you. Don't worry guys, this guy's just going to scam us to fund his wonderful project. So we can all be rich. Hooray!

Ha ha another scam tactic is to link to other well known btc websites in signature and / or profile so people might think they have something to do with it.

Well known?

That site is simply a scam, not well known lol

My mistake sorry I thought it was a long running one.

Yea anyways the OP just simply ran off I think.
Like I said scammers are too lazy these days, not even innovative about their scams ::)

I agree 100%.

100% fake guaranteed :)

Exactly. This is almost certainly a scam, but if you do take the chance use escrow but I doubt he'll ever agree to that.

Ok thanks to everyone who contacted me. Pictures will be available on monday.

For everyone who would like to reserve send me PM.

If you are willing to use an escrow, I will take 2 immediately

It says he will in his first post:

Awesome!

Please post pictures as soon as you can. Of course, with your forum name and date written on paper
Is everything ok with phones? No bad ESN, or something?

Lots of scammers will state they accept escrow to look legit but behind the scenes try to get out of using one. Hopefully this isn't the case here but people always seem to try scam with great deals on bulk iphones. I'm sure we'll see if he can provide pictures shortly.

Please sign me up for this!
Take my BTC!

Until you give a vouch copy to someone or a customer with proof this is legit no one will buy.
If its proven I'm prepared to buy 3.

I don't want to give a negative trust to the OP,  he should post some "evidence" or he is a purely scammer.  We are waiting the photos (timestamp + nickname) if it is possible.

Thanks for the attention.

I also want 3 and proof

as long you are open to using a legit escrow, I think I`ll take one unit. If you can provide you already provided units to someone.

This is unlocked or no?

Just make sure he doesn't try to pull something like this on you, do not release any money until you have a physical product in your hand and have checked it is okay, even if this means getting a £2 blacklist check.

It's either the phone is stolen, the seller will try to convince you not to use an escrow, or he uses a fake escrow.

Either ways he's a scammer. He might sell it to one of his alts as a vouch as well

He says that he has multiple available.
He won't pick an escrow, we will ;)

Lol multiple available at 80% under normal retail price and a discount of a further 6% if you buy 10 or more?

I don't think so  ;)

If he's legit we'll all be rich by now  ;D

too good to be true.

Either a scamer or they are hot which means they wont work eventually.

I'd advice you guys to be careful

Yep it's kinda obvious.

There is no way that this is a legit deal. Even with an escrow this has to be some sort of scam. Might as well get the phone shipped to escrow, and have it send to you later.

This is definitely NOT a scam...

Said a newbie account set up hours ago

Don't you think that he's being sarcastic?

are you being sarcastic as well?

how can you show us are real and not icloud locked?

I'm still waiting the photos , can we have some proofs that you are "owning" these mobile phones?

OP hasn't been back for 3 days it was a very lame scam attempt.

I've seen , it is useless to give him a negative trust for a scam attempt. I'm happy no one has sent him bitcoin for first, alway use an escrow ! This is a basic rules.

I'm sure no-one was silly enough to fall for it. He probably wont be back until he tries another scam under a different name.

solution is : escrow or escrow :) haha
and of course all the people to leave their comments !
we are a community !

Exactly! It seems to me like scam attempts have reduced lately.

I think scammers have finally found out its pretty tough trying to scam on here now :D.

the price is low how interset
any people buy it and receive the phone ? :)

There are no phones it was a scam.

Dam amazin I was looking to purchase one for 0.5 BTC this too good to be truth threads are all day on the forum I guess if any day this kind of deals are going to be real or what. Well if you got some phones and accept escrow OP let me know. ::)

I have no idea why you guys are keeping this thread alive with "oh has any one got there phone" "oh dam I wish it was real" this is why the goods section is such a mess and you have to go back 3 pages worth to see what's current

it was a good scam :) we all liked the price right?

as good as your locked iphone  ???

i have an iphone for sale if you mean that.
that i write it is locked!
what is your point on that?

EDIT: here is the post for all the others who don't know: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=977498.msg10703527#msg10703527

EDIT: here we all know it's a scam?

you don't have the right to call me scammer.

i am years here and never had any problem.

it seems to me you are one more troll in this forum....

i lost my time but please be careful who you blame
