Shouldn't it be the other way around? If someone pays me first then they wouldn't have a chance to scam so I can't judge their trustworthiness. However if I pay first and they deliver (or I deliver first and they pay later) while having a chance of scamming me - that proves trustworthiness, at least up to the value of the deal / risked amount.
That's a good point, but I also look at it this way. If someone has enough btc to pay me upfront for an item and share me their shipping details, and has a decent rep in collectibles or is anewbie who is actually trying to learn/get ahead, (without any shenanigans or feelings of unease), and I deliver and they are happy, I see that as fairly trustworthy, as ofc I have no reason to get scammed, nor would I scam anyone as most people who really know me know. To be fair/honest, sometimes I never leave trust in this scenario, and sometimes I do if it's a high-value item or something "different", so I don't think I've ever enabled any scammery in this manner .... I will think more about this as well. As for the second scenario, yes, it indeed does prove trustworthiness, and I usually put trust on those deals ahead of the former. However, I have not been part of many deals where half is first/half later for some strange reason. Edit - Either way, I think a lot / very carefully before adding positive trust. In fact I sold Rainbowsky a coin thinking he was a newbie just trying to learn. He had me send a bunch of pics of coins I now know he could never/would afford, then just bought only one cheapo for like 80 bucks. There was no way I would leave trust for a trade of that value like that, and I actually figured out it was Alamjob since he had sent me something once in a raffle or something small, and I just happened to recognize his name/location as being the same as alamjobs. ... That's how I figured this all out. In fact, I gave Rainbowsky a merit once, thinking he was just a newbie trying to work his way up, since I thought his post was actually good/true.... Little did I know he was just "behaving" and acting "normal" at that time before being "outed" again ....

Very well said, I am the same way. I will not give positive trust for deals under a certain amount of BTC/$, such as Mr. Nasty who gave Rainbowsky +trust over (maybe?) 30 bucks worth of physical coin(s) he won in some raffle. Personally as for "deals", I never give positive trust unless 1, 2, or 3 (or combination thereof) occur: 1. They pay me first without any escrow, with at least a trade value of 500 USD worth of BTC (Typically for something I am selling or auctioning). 2. I receive the item in perfect standing, with no issues. OR: 1. I buy or sell a good, and escrow is used, and both parties are satisfied. OR: People such as yourself who are critical thinkers, and Lauda who leaves excellent feedback - This would include well known and respect anti-scammers like suchmoon, lovesmyfamlis, coolcryptovator, etc etc... I highly value opinions or ratings of other users like them, even if I have never traded a satoshi. I also know that Lauda was aghast at how cheaply some people give positive trust feedback.
Having known Lauda over a period of time, I realized they were just a bit trigger-happy at first, but they always went back and revised and removed any errors. They just erred on the side of caution, which I don't think is a bad thing. I have done this myself admittedly, sometimes not having enough time to maintain my own list. However, I'd just like to state for the record, I never trusted Lauda as a person, just their ratings. That's the only reason they still exist in my trustlist, and having taken heat from even Theymos about it, I still don't care, everycon can fuck off there lol 😂
As for Rainbowsky, check it, he's up to more shenanigans - Selling the same item in two different places, and keeps deleting the evidence (The last post lol). https://archive.is/Z34U2Cheers

If they did something wrong, I shouldn't suffer this. If they are bad members, the forum system should delete them.
Interesting, and quite laughable actually ... So.. Members in my Distrust list. They are on this list because they added me to their Distrust for no any reason. Or maybe they have a reason for them. But I have never heard of it and have not been warned.
Frankly I can't understand why someone added me to their Distrust list. Because I don't know those people, I don't have a any conversation with this members, and I didn't do a trade with them.
Lies. You ~'ed me loooong ago. I sent you a PM since I had no idea who you are (and still don't, or care), yet you never even replied. You are a great addition to the trust system indeed... I mean, excluding people based on nothing? Anyhow, I could give zero fucks, I just think that statement above is fucking stupid and hilarious at once, in fact so stupid I could actually believe you think that... Cheers, idiot.

Do you have the physical card as well or did you sell it? Just curious. I'm interested to see if they are worth more as a set or broken up, Physical/NFT wise.... Thanks! Good luck!

Most likely we'll see more when he keeps posting his nonsense. I've listed their registration dates and all of them are similar (could also just be a coincindence). alamjob239 Date Registered: October 01, 2019, 03:44:12 AMBla2kja2k Date Registered: February 02, 2020, 10:15:23 PMacemax Date Registered: February 13, 2020, 09:26:27 PMRainbowsky Date Registered: June 27, 2020, 09:50:37 PMSlbtc Date Registered: November 14, 2020, 11:14:29 PMNow that I think about it some more, Alamjob/Rainbowsky did get banned from sales at Coldkey.eu by Yogg.... For asking Yogg for a BTC loan through the Coldkey website contact form. Thanks again for looking at this 1miau, I appreciate it and will keep an eye on that one as well. And Mopar, you are correct, there is not doubt alamajob is rainbowsky, he just won't admit it and likely thinks we are the dumb ones...

Any opinions if this moron could also be one of his alts? SlbtcModern people do not need all merits and member levels in forums, it does not mean anything. Sure, loan scammer... Will take some loan ~ 0.5 BTC for investment, quick repayment, then take next 1 BTC and so on, up to ~10 BTC. No collateral. Real and quick deal. Small profit. I will need make some calculation before first deal - profit and repayment date. And current BTC transfer time is large problem for fast deals too. https://archive.is/E0Sm9I can't say for certain obviously but the way of typing and broken Engrish are quite similar. I guess only Theymos would really know by using IP logs. I don't think this guy is smart enough to even use a VPN myself but you never know.

Another version. This is the 3rd version in such a short time.
So what? They are low valued / not highly loaded coins and they are quite nice, especially these.... You obviously don't understand collecting. You just want to flip it on your pathetic ebay account for more $ anyhow so GTFO.

Batch 2 still available?
Yes sir! I'd like 2 slabs from Batch 2 (sent to Minerjones), if you still have those available. I'll send the payment once you confirm.
No problem! PM me your txid and I will get them out! As always, great job! I really love the look of those slabs. They are always high quality I wonder if there's a way to seal these in for additional security. Maybe we could provide an official COA/hologram for you to use there? -Daniele Thanks! I have thought of that too, it would be pretty cool!... But... Each slab would theoretically need 2, one on each side to do it securely I think...

Received my notes. They are very cool! Hope to maintain the complete collection going forward.
owlcatz, I am interested in these acrylic slabs.
Thanks phishead, minerjoners, et al.
Thanks - here you go! https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5288086

Hi fellow collectors! I have the following acrylic bill/note holders for sale: (Sorry, but ALL actual notes displayed are NOT for sale, JUST the holders)! Please read the following carefully before posting messages and/or questions, as I have two slightly different sizes for sale:
Things to know: (Disclaimer: Companies made both batches of these for me, I did not make them).Batch 1: The quality is not quite as high as batch 2, but still very very nice/acceptable for the smaller sized notes, and cheaper. It's a pity they don't fit a standard Poly note, just the smaller/later ones like mystery notes (excluding Triangle), the penguin/cardinals, latest mystery notes, and the latest Spesmonerujo (v2) notes. Batch 2: The second batch is a bit more high-quality and slightly bigger - To make it much simpler for people, Batch 2 slabs are EXACTLY like these on Amazon, but with no cut-out insert, just the clear full insert, as they were a custom order. These are high quality slabs, still pre-polished, sealed and packed for about 2 years now.
Slabs - Batch 1: (Smaller) - 16 x Acrylic holders available, all untouched in plastic bags.Sizing: 18cm wide X 9cm high x 13mm thick. 11oz apiece. (10.6oz Actual) Included: 1 x USA/Imperial 9/64" hex wrench.
Notes: These slabs will NOT fit the normal size Polymerbit notes, however they will just barely fit a 1 USD bill, as shown below, and many other notes like the latest mystery series, cardinal/penguin, and the Spemonerujo v2 notes. Front & back - click for fullsize-ness: 1 USD On top of the slab/note: Slabs - Batch 2: (Bigger) - 15 13 x Acrylic holders, made by PlastixRevolution, still in sealed bags.Sizing: 18.3cm wide x 9.25cm high x 13.9mm thick. 11oz apiece (10.8oz Actual) Included: 1 x USA/Imperial 9/64" hex wrench.
Sizing for Batch 2: These slabs WILL fit a normal sized Polymerbit, as well as USD as show below, but these are generally higher quality than Batch 1 slabs. Specifics: Fits notes sized 16.5cm wide x 7.1cm high and smaller.Front and backs - click for fullsizeness: 1 USD placed on top of the slab/note:
Final note: As you may see above, or know from buying other items, I sometimes use shrink wrap to seal my slabs or sometimes graded coins using an impulse sealer with some shrink-wrap to avoid scratches. If you want or are willing to send me your notes, I can place them properly, and then give you an airtight shrink wrap for an additional 40 USD for my time per slab. Otherwise, learn it yourself, as it's not as easy as it seems, but then again, it's not super-difficult either after some practice. Pricing/Payment/Shipping: Slab Prices: Batch 1: $23 USD per slab preev.com rate @ time of payment. Batch 2: $29 USD per slab preev.com rate @ time of payment.Payment: Pretty much anything on most chains, just LMK! Shipping: Batch 1 - 3 x slabs per USPS SFRB (Small Flate Rate Box) (Add 8.50 USD) Batch 2 - 2 x slabs per USPS SFRB (Small Flate Rate Box) (Add 8.50 USD)Larger orders, contact me for more info. Escrow or reship possible/encouraged for overseas members with MoparMiningLLC. Thanks! Edit First come first served. I may not be able to update this as often as I like, but will try!
