1  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Paid with bitcoin, company refuses to ship? on: June 09, 2014, 08:57:29 PM
Hey guys thanks for the replies, after attempting to talk this out with them the sales rep is not helpful AT ALL. He keeps telling me to send an email which i have to get no response in 5 days.

I'm more angry at the principle that they have taken my money not that I've lost $200.
***I have filed a BBB and FTC complaint, thank you for informing me of these orgnaizations.

Can I take this to small claims court? If so how would I?
Help is much appreciated.
2  Economy / Service Discussion / Paid with bitcoin, company refuses to ship? on: June 05, 2014, 09:35:26 PM

I ordered from this company and they have a pay with bitcoin feature. I paid the amount of BTC and a few days later after speaking with the customer service rep they are saying they haven't received the money with I can see on the blockchain it has over 500 confirmations. (I'm positive I sent to the right address)

The customer service rep was being pretty shady saying he had no one else he could refer me but himself saying he didn't have a supervisor, and he couldn't communicate with the "financial department".

What do you suppose I do? What can I legally do if they continue to refuse shipping out my order?
I will continue to work this out with the company before taking any big action.

Why pay for a company to make you a fancy one? Always better to print/write one down yourself... not to mention it's free.
4  Economy / Marketplace / Best website to sell & buy instantly? on: February 25, 2014, 06:36:41 PM
Hey guys, I'm looking for a reliable website where I can sell & buy bitcoins the minute I want to.

A few pop out with a google search but what is the consensus on a good website?

-Thanks!

PS. I don't mind if I have to wait a week or two to start trading, I jsut want the ability to sell&buy instantly when I need to, not necessarily this moment.

Hi, I'm looking to store bitcoins securely for the long term (hoping they'll one day be worth $5000 haha)

Please tell me if this is a secure way:

boot from Ubuntu Live CD ---> Bitaddress.org ---> Disconnect from internet ---> Generate address & private key (how do these two get input into the bitcoin system if I am disconnected from the internet?)---> Write these two down with hand on paper ---> Shutdown.

Also, when using the Brain Wallet function, I should type in something ridiculously long and complicated and I won't need to remember the passphrase nor write it down as long as I have the private key correct?

Okay so right now you can get these things for $30 each.
Say I bought 10 ($300)
Then bought some lower power equipment (motherboard, USB ports, etc) to hook it up to ($100)

I'd have 3330 MH/s for $400
With 100W power
Cost being $.10 per k0Wh

USING THIS CALCULATOR: https://bitclockers.com/calc

I'd make $291 (after subtracting electricity bill) for 30 days. After a month and a half I should have made my money back.

Someone please show me the math of why they do not work.
