If you would have a spotless OTC rating, I would have considered it.
But this is not the case (http://bitcoin-otc.com/viewratingdetail.php?nick=AeroJohn).

- You don't have much exposure here, with successful transactions
- Your OTC rating isn't spotless
- You seem to want the deal quick-quick-quick

As others already suggested, try a different way of obtaining your BTC...

Just to confirm that I would trust TheButterZone over the other users who repped him. Trade carefully.

TheButterZone didnt even trade with him it looks like. Just negged him because he wanted to use paypal. Anyways, I sold a small fraction of a coin to him just now. Waiting for confirmation.

doesnt stop him doing a charge back (up to 6 months?) and if he did want to scam you would'nt the obvious thing be to pay you for a small sum of coins only to run off with a lager sum he later gained with his newfound "trust"? Your braver than me for sure!

Besides its not like PP is a miracle solution to the "complex" process of sending money. Escrow is the way to go, and even a 3-legged, blind,brick-hooved donkey can use WU or whatever.

Note to OP: I'm not accussing you of being a scammer, you might be genuine BBBUUUUTT, as I'm sure many have learned the hard way, never trust the stranger in a hurry!  Grin. So if you are trying to scam: go fuck yourself!, if not: have a look at some of the scammer related threads so you dont sound so shady.

Hmm the everytime I see this I get a bit more wary. A new user comes on and wants to buy some coins with pp? No reason to think it isnt just another btc newbie who didnt know that paypal is considered a very unreliable method because of chargeback scams. Fair enough. Whats makes me ponder and twist my beard good sir,your constant "bump" suggests you are eager to buy some coins quickly, yet not too eager to take the time to view the many sale ads that you couldnt have missed when you came here by other well known users.

And despite every response to your ad has been people trying to offer advise that your ad has all the textbook signs of a scammer(not a very good one btw) fishing, and the easiest way (and where!) to buy coins that any seller would have no issue with, you make zero effort to even try look like your legit,not even a half assed response to anyone. you simply carry on with your routine bump, I smell a scoundrel. I think you can bump along until some says "have my coins, promise you wont chargeback and run away." Your so committed to bumping I just dont see why you are staying so mute.One post mentioning escrow wont make you look legit btw, doesnt stop chargebacks.

So I hereby make this am making a public challange to defend your honour good sir, or forever be cursed to endlessly wander this misty forum searching for victims in vain.

Or if you just turn out to be a bit shy and I'm just being a bit too mean we'll laugh about this story of how we first fell in love for years around the forum's campfires.

you made me lol, so I will answer back. I have already bought at least 6 btc from people with paypal, and I have all the reputation/vouch threads on my op post so you can go look at them before adding me.

For what it's worth, he ended up paying what I sold him (I only had $8 of coins). Whether you trust paypal or not is up to you guys. I will personally trust him if I'm looking to sell small amounts in the future.

If you accept paypal they'll call you a scammer, if you wanna buy with paypal they'll tag you as scammer.

its better for you either buy through virwox or ebay if you wanna use ur pp cash.

If you send Paypal as a gift, you can't do a chargeback.

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

Anyway anyone who wants to trade with Dwolla can just use CampBx that takes Dwolla depots and withdrawls very smoothly, at least from my limited experience.
