Bumping this. 147 views and not one person wants a Starbucks gift card? You can always transfer the balance to your standard card, or give cardpool.com a try to exchange it for Amazon or some other gift code.
its not that anyone doesn't want it, Its that you're a JR member. Show some proof of concluded transactions and maybe then someone might bite  The only concluded transactions I have under my belt are failed scam attempts by people with English as a second language. As to the gift card, I can provide a screen shot (or picture from my phone) of the current balance as of the current datetime, as well as all transactions made by the card up to the current datetime. I'm also willing to use a trusted escrow if that is required, and I'd pay the fees (assuming it's a reasonable rate). Not that I don't understand the hesitation. If I had a BTC for every random person making "offers" out of the blue, I'd have a 500 GH/s rig by now. Yeah, I know I get it. But also keep in mind that there are other members on this site selling Starbucks Giftcards for 30% and 40% off Face value. 9/59 = 18% off. Not trying to be harsh. Just trying to help and be honest with you. Wow. I didn't actually calculate how much people were knocking off of the value. I'll change my price. Thanks for the tip. |

I'm offering a Starbucks gift card number and pin valued at $59.32 for $40 Mt. Gox average in BTC.
Will send first to trusted members - otherwise we'll use escrow.
I previously had this sale in Currency Exchange, but thought it would be a better idea to move it over to Goods.

Could a mod close this thread, please? I'm moving this to Goods.

Thanks to Cardpool being annoying, I've decided to try and sell this Starbucks card here.
I'm offering a Starbucks gift card number and pin valued at $59.32 for $50 Mt. Gox average in BTC.
Will use escrow if required. Will send first to trusted members.

This isn't a proper faucet. It doesn't give anything until you reach 100,000 satoshis. A proper faucet literally sends the coins to your wallet.

i just tried to buy his other 125 gdmp and got this message
The MoneyPak was refunded on 12/30/2013 8:07:34 PM in the amount of $125.00
So you tried to buy his other MP code and it was already refunded? I hope you didn't send him coins. |

No the moneypak numbers are not invalid they just no longer have funds in them anymore. I checked the codes and didn't unload it before I gave it to you. The code is valid it did say 125 dollar balance now it says 0. Please deposit half the bitcoins and I'll give you the 2nd moneypak key and then ill go back to the store and get another one to replace the one that didn't work and we can both be happy. This is a good solution for both of us. thanks
Posting this in case he edits the post later. You claim that the MP was valid. Now you're offering to buy another MP to "replace the one that didn't work" on the condition that I send you half of the coins. |

I can't PM you right now due to a limit on PMs sent per hour. I told you this. I also told you that the MP code did not work. Explain to me exactly how to checked to make sure it was valid. Can YOU unload it into your PayPal? Because I can't. I told you that if you don't want to use the other MP code for half of the coins to use MoneyPakTrader.com or some other site that accepts MPs for BTC. I also explained to you that it will take 1-5 days to process your coins. That's all that happened. If you have a scammer accusation against me, you can post it here, https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=83.0Blowing up my PM box when I cannot answer you back, posting complaints here when I cannot answer you in PM, and while I type this sending MORE PMs that I cannot answer to right away will not solve the issue that we're having. I'm taking this conversation back to PMs. Please keep in mind that I can only send so many replies per hour. Thank you. |

What happened:: A user on the forums posted in currency exchange that he was looking to sell 0.3 BTC for Western Union. He wanted to be contacted via PM or email. I emailed him regarding the transaction. I was initially suspicious (Western Union?), but tried to reassure myself through negotiation. What I found out didn't exactly soothe my concerns.
1: He was selling 0.3 BTC at $192. This is far below the average price.
2: We agreed to use PayPal. I thought this would be better than WU, because at least with this I have a means of resolving a scam. However, the user lives in Israel, and you cannot send a Gift payment to Israel from the USA. The user wanted me to send the funds, open a dispute, close the dispute, and then he would send the funds. This (like WU) would leave me with no way to get my funds back if he pulled a fast one.
3: He was willing to accept half of the payment, send half of the coins, then finish the transaction. He was NOT willing to send half of the coins, receive the full payment, and send the rest. No matter what we negotiated, all outcomes would result in me sending a non-refundable payment to Israel with nothing to show for it but his "word".
4: I told him that it would take later today (negotiations were entered this morning) for me to get to a WU counter. He said that would be fine, and he is "online 24/7". This was a bit suspicious.
5: After driving to the grocery store where I can send a WU wire, I took his personal information (which is....)
--------
Yarin Groiser
Phone: 0523011189
Hadera, Israel
--------
6: After receiving his wire information, I filled out the form, withdrew $200 from the ATM, and asked him to send half of the coins. He refused. I explained that this entire situation is extremely sketchy. At one point he told me "I can proof you via teamviewer" regarding his wallet balance (I assume). Another hallmark of a scammer.
7: At the end of it all, he refused to send even a portion of the coins first, but was more than happy to accept a portion of the payment first. To a scammer, getting $10, $20, or $90 for doing nothing but sending emails is all the same - it's a payday. I informed him of my concerns regarding the points I've outlined here, informed him that I would be making a scam accusation on the forums, and wished him the best of luck.
Scammers Profile Link: Unknown - the transaction thread is deleted.Reference Link: This is the link to the now deleted thread. You can google $192 from these forums and see a portion of the OP.https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=389954.0Amount Scammed: Attempted to scam me for $192 (or $96, depending on how you look at it)Payment Method: Western Union (Or PayPal after opening and immediately closing a dispute)Proof of Payment: No payment was made.PM/Chat Logs: I can provide the emails sent back and forth.Additional Notes: I don't have much to add. I tried to work with him to get a bit of protection for myself, but to no avail. His English (which wasn't great) remained consistent throughout the correspondence, so I ASSUME that it was just one person I was dealing with. I'm just posting this here so that if a newbie (or anyone) is approached by someone wanting a Western Union transaction to Israel, or if someone is asked to use the "method" of PayPal he suggested, they can be aware of my dealings with this person.

Buy low, sell high.
You could try begging or getting a loan for your first BTC, but I advise buying some. I'm already in negotiations with another user to buy via Western Union. Hopefully I don't get scammed.
I intend to just stick to trading and loans. It's how I've made the BTC I have now. So buy from people wanting to unload, and go at about -15%. Sell to people willing to buy at about +15%.
Long term you probably want to wait to ride the BTC wave until it "peaks", then unload. Of course then you'll have some dead zone time where you wait for the wave to collapse again.

Hello,
Long time lurker, first time poster. Appreciate some help on this.. I'm sure it basic, but I'm still learning.
- Received a paper wallet as a gift for the holidays. Paper wallet was imported into Blockchain.
- I already had a MultiBit wallet, and want the BTC from the Blockchain wallet to be stored in the MultiBit wallet.
- Today, I exported the Blockchain Wallet, and imported it into MultiBit. Balance updated correctly after sync and it combined the two wallets.
So, why is the gift balance still in Blockchain Wallet when I log in to their site? When importing into MultiBit, did I not transfer the funds out of Blockchain? Is MultiBit simply showing the combined balance of multiple Keys, but not actually combining them into one wallet? If so, how do I now remove the Blockchain Key, so I can then simply transfer the funds to MultiBit wallet?
Paranoid about screwing something up. Tried searching but couldn't find anything. Input is appreciated.
Thanks.
As I recall, Multibit will display any and all key amounts in "one wallet". Also, it takes time for the confirmations to kick in. |
