Guys, guys. Remember the auction?

The auction that explicitly said how they were going to close/sell due to changing laws in HONG KONG?

Remember how Hong Kong is not in Germany?

Seriously. No one noticed that back then?

No.  But then again I dind't know Tosaki (the original Tosaki) was or wasn't German.

Very shady to sell site, forum accounts, email, etc to a new entity without making it public.   Lying (by omission) doesn't exactly inspire confidence.  I won't be using bitmit in the future and I have been an early supporter.

I'd like to see a reputable member purchase bitmit, Im sure this is propably still an option preferred by everyone.

Wow, I just placed an order on bitmit last night and I now have "no permission" to view the order, after paying. Were my funds taken by the new owner or something?

Looks like the site was restored with my account and the way I left it. Note that earlier today it was a 2 day backup but now that seems to be fixed.

I have a feeling the new owner is good-willed. But secretely selling bitmit including tosaki account was a huge mistake.

yeah, it seems everything is restored (except one user who still complains it seems).

Let's see if confidence can be restored, too.

One would hope, but the new owner withheld the information of change of ownership just the same as the old owner withheld the fact that it had been sold.  I would almost say the new owner has more responsibility to report the change to the users of the site.

Good-willed, hopefully, but naive as well.

That means some unknown guy is holding OUR money right now and we dont know Who he is. And in fact  some UNKNOWN guy got all our email adress and account information.

At least he should give us his old forum account here. so that we can know who  he is.

Well...maybe it's time someone actually made a good version of bitmit.

Another reason to switch to coinpost.com - since you put in your own BTC address for payment, no funds are ever held in a wallet outside your control.

Saying that you don't trust someone because of their behavior is completely valid.

Why don't you do that MPOE-PR.

Add it to your
Exchange
Your betting site
and your porn site.

That would be a nice diversified portfolio of companies.

Sounds like a good way for buyers to lose a lot of coinage.

Hmmm … don't know if I would buy there … don't need women shoes size 7 and that's basically all for sale right now.

Ok, joking aside Smiley
I checked it out and while I'm really not up for buying and have no clue yet, I'm about to add some coins for sale. Physical coins. Old coins. Older than 2009.
Which category would that be?

If I understand it right, coinpost.com doesn't want to hold coins? I didn't see fees yet but I expect it will cost something to refresh a listing. If not now, maybe later. I like the idea of services that don't hold my coins.

So what? Decoupling of [real] identity and reputation is very bitcoin-y in my opinion Wink
