Lot's of new sellers have listed their contact info in the database so if you're looking to buy or sell stop by the site and see if you can make a local trade and avoid the banking system, it's associated fees and lack of privacy. Cheers!

Sorry to hear about the losses to people who've had money on the various exchanges. This is why building your local trading networks is so important. The user base steadily increasing on TradeYourBitcoin.com so this can only be good to help facilitate local exchanges. I'm not interested in making money off of this site, I'm only interested in making bitcoin stronger and more liquid through local trading networks. If you haven't listed yourself as a local trader consider doing so - that way you can avoid the centralized exchanges as much as possible.

LOL. Did you see the birdie?

A dangerous endeavor it seems to me. You would attract scammers and heat - possibly becoming the "fall guy". Not to mention that you may be charged as an accomplice to a crime.

I visit San Diego on a regular basis as well so you can add my name to the list.

Matthew,
LOL! This is the best laugh I've had all day. Thanks for pointing out the hypocrisy of the bank trash-talkers who continue to patronize them. Folks, if you want monetary (read "personal") freedom stop using the banks. Wean yourself off of them. Exchange locally instead of using exchanges that are tied to the banking system.

I do it to avoid fees and avoid banks - that makes it profitable for me. I do not charge commissions. I do it to provide local liquidity for myself and others while bypassing the banking system entirely. There's nothing wrong with charging fees but I think you'd have to meet or beat BitInstant's fees to get any interest. What is important, in my opinion, is to have a local network of traders in place before a possible future banking blockade. Here is a discussion we had on this topic just recently: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=83565.0 |

I'm a fan, although I haven't done a trade person-to-person yet. Good work!
Thanks! I've just done another "person-to-person" exchange and I really like cutting out the banker middlemen. I've been building a personal email list of local traders that I've conducted trades with in the past and I send out an email notice whenever I need to buy or sell. When I do this I don't have too much difficulty getting orders filled fairly quickly. Also, a simple craigslist posting has worked for me too. |

My two bit-cents:
The beauty is that bitcoin doesn't really have to gain any more acceptance in order for it to be useful. As long as it maintains a steady value I could care less what the "masses" think or if they ever adopt it. I can use it as a "store of value" and "offshore bank account" in its current state. This is similar to gold and silver - the masses don't own it, don't spend it, and don't have a clue of its value. Meanwhile, gold and silver still shine and deliver.

Yes,
Paper = Physical Cash
Bitcoin = Digital Cash
Avoid banks altogether and trade locally using sites that connect local traders.

I've just concluded a local, person-to-person exchange - now that's "personal banking"! The best part? No bank fees and no exchange fees!
Say "NO" to banks!

FYI: If you tried to list yourself as a seller on the site a couple of days ago you might have had a problem getting listed due to a minor code error. Everything is working fine now so please feel free to list yourself again and expand your trading opportunities! Remember: "Say 'NO' to banks!"  Trader Steve |
