BE ADVISED:
I have attempted to contact these guys twice regarding a withdrawal, and I haven't received anything back... No contact, no coins. At this point, I'm considering these guys as a scam.
Please respond to me if you'd like more information or to make it right...

Here is an idea:
1. Decide on a rate relative to MtGox (e.g. MtGoxLast [+/-] x%) and declare that the rate at the moment someone "accepts" the offer will be the rate paid. 2. Set up a bitcoin address dedicated to this offer, and require that your buyer send a 10% deposit to the address, to lock in the timing and the rate. Accept only the first acceptable payment, refund all the rest if there's more than one. 3. If you are afraid that you might get burned at an unfavorable rate because someone buys right at the tip of a downswing, then simply state that you reserve the right to cancel without prejudice any acceptance that was made while the MtGox high was > 105% of the low, over the 24 hours prior to the acceptance. 4. PGP sign the whole thing and publish it. 5. Wait for incoming bitcoins, and then make sure the person who says they sent them can prove the sending address was theirs. 6. When the buyer sends his fiat money, send his bitcoins and return his deposit.
This procedure prevents all the pussyfooting and locks in a specific moment and rate to be used. I have used it with astounding success for the limited familiarity our community has with it. If more people did this, we'd have decentralized exchange.
Doing it this way, you aren't stuck with possibly having to accept the bottom end of whatever variation there is in the rate during the time it takes you to negotiate and set up a transaction, versus seeming to offer an uncompetitive rate. It's effectively a variable-price-pegged-to-Gox Buy-It-Now offer... fixed in terms but variable based on when accepted.
If you will set up an offer like this, I will strongly consider accepting it. The benefit for me is that at whatever point I pull the trigger, I should have a good idea of exactly what deal I am walking into, the moment I act on it. It's confidence in the marketplace.
I like this. However, I'm all sold out. Thanks!! I might have more soon. -EP

Working on this as well... Although as far as I can tell, there's no way to get the specific currency that the receiver wants to pick up given the location that the receiver is in...

I need around £170 ($277) Western Union which will be paid for with bitcoins. I'm happy to deviate up to 4% of market value. This will be a recurring thing so regular traders welcome. Even if you can only provide this one time that is still fine Please PM me or post here. I need a couple more points of information before I can make you an offer. I'll PM you. -EP

I was planning on making that decision on a case by case basis, but had thought that the rate would be set upon your deposit. IE, we set the rate, you make the deposit, then get the coins on Saturday. However, if you would like to wait until Friday to make the deposit and set the rate on that date, I'm open to that option as well.
Thanks for the good question, I should have addressed that in my OP.

I think fbastage put it pretty well. Let it also be known that I did not do business with LadyPearl with the intention of "Robin Hooding" the funds. I also offered to return the funds to arij before the court preceding. Full logs are available for all to see if anyone would like to request them.
All in all, I'm really glad that arij saw the trade occurring and that he contacted me with the indisputable evidence. Yes, I missed out on some coins at a great price, but I'm very happy to have been a vessel for some bitcoin-karma.
Thanks, and trade safe! -EP
