I'm looking for some advice here. I have a preorder for three Avalon batch 2 units (actually it is for four units, but one is for a friend and so is not mine really) and I'm looking to sell one of the units and mine with the other two in order to hedge my bets and diversify my investment.
I'm cool with taking the risk if Avalon never delivers, or saying "if it doesn't arrive by X date the trade is cancelled" or just leaving the auction open until it does arrive and I have it in hand and selling to the highest bidder on that date. I'm also cool with any sensible payment method, but from looking at other sales it appears that John K escrow is the way to go.
But of course my main problem is that nobody knows me here so nobody has any reason to trust me, so I'm wondering how best to give evidence that I own preorders. I can give the blockchain transaction IDs (payment was done in two transactions) but I can't prove that I own any of the related addresses. Having said which, it has just occurred to me as I write this that BtcDirect of localbitcoins.com (
https://localbitcoins.com/accounts/profile/BtcDirect/) could vouch for me because I paid them GBP and had them send the BTC to Avalon directly (to save time). So assuming they are willing to spend the time to vouch for me they are presumably trustworthy enough for that to work?
I attach some screenshots of the order and the transactions in case that helps. I have blurred out all identifying details because I am paranoid that someone else will take my screenshots and claim them as their own, and also it would be useful to be able to reveal the hidden details later. Ignore the Avalon website where it says that batch 2 was priced at 75 BTC per unit; it was actually priced in USD at $1500 per unit. This is displayed on my order page (again, incorrectly) as 6000 BTC (for a total of four units) - it should say $6000. Therefore the amount I paid was 225.6 BTC which was $6000 at the time.
