Title: looking for 2BTC, giving 16 USD Paypal
Post by: pvanhuffel on May 25, 2011, 10:06:48 PM
Hello all,
I'm new here, I would like to see how it works. Biggest challenge is to trade USD with Bitcoins in a fast way. Paypal is the ideal way to act fast, but drawback is that some are abusing the system.
In order to test Bitcoin, I'm willing to buy 2 BTC for 16 USD from my Paypal account. Any Paypal cost is for you, but still should give you a nice deal.
PM me if interested, preferably within 30 minutes after this post (is after midnight here already in Belgium).
Thanks
Philippe

pvanhuffel, is complicated to trade with anyone who has only 1 post here....

Try https://mtgox.com/ and you will get better price than 8USD/1BTC (Current price: 7.5699)

Good luck!

Hello BitcoinsWallet,
I can understand, seems the system's actual challenge is to create a fast way to convert USD towards Bitcoins, seems like Paypal cannot do this, nor Credit Cards :(
In case someone is still interested (even for better rate, since price is very variable), send me a message, reply within 24 hours.
Thanks and best regards
Philippe

The problem with Paypal here is that it's the person sending PayPal who needs to have a good reputation.  Let's say I wanted to do this trade - you could send me the $16, I send you the 2 BTC which are irreversible, and then you initiate a chargeback on PayPal and get that $16 back. 

If you have a bank account, I think getting USD into Mt. Gox via Dwolla would be one of the easier, though slower, ways.  Or use that "BitcoinExchange" fellow who will accept PayPal.
