I am going to try it out with 1 coin, I will keep you guys posted.

So, I didn't receive any reply within 24 hours. That's some fine business you have there.

Did my words move you? Or did they bring you to enlightenment? Feel free to give some ฿ to me: 1DKMAfeDswYf9MFjWxjPCfjEVkgmXvnizo

This company doesn't appear to be registered with the U.S. Department of Treasury as an MSB (http://www.fincen.gov/financial_institutions/msb/msbstateselector.html).

Nor does it look like it's registered with the U.S. states as a money transmitter (CA: http://www.dfi.ca.gov/Directory/money_transmitters.html).

Why would it be? owner's first name "An", last name "Onymous" -- looks legit, huh!?

I know, right! Anyway, if he scams us, we can just go to Where Some and beat him up, right?

the last thing i would do to sell my bitcoins is to use paypal. too many scammers plus funds are easily reversible.

It depends what you do - for instance, if you ship a piece of cloth or even a paper wallet in the mail and provide a tracking number, it's much harder to charge-back, and they can't just claim that they were hacked if you have a name + shipping address.

Totally right...

Unless they pull a CC chargeback, or return the empty paper wallet (with a tracking #) or a whole bunch of other unscrupulous things that paypal doesn't much care about.

It's incredibly dumb for a legitimate business to leave themselves open to that much risk, but why would an anonymous scammer care?

Please DO NOT send me private messages asking for help setting up GPU miners. I will not respond!!!

He probably won't. But returning the wallet with emptied funds isn't OK either.

We apologize for the delay Ssoele - We had a few issues which mean't we were offline for a little while longer than expected.
We have responded to your enquiry now.

Is buying through paypal safe? I've always debated trying it but been scared to..

We believe it is safe if you trust the person you are buying/selling from/to.



We have read the other comments and although mainly negative we look forward to hopefully changing how the company is perceived.
We look forward to doing business with everyone who wishes to and can only hope, you will post back with positive reviews to show the majority our legitimacy.

Kind Regards,
btc2paypal

This would definitely be a convenient way of selling bitcoin if it is a legit setup that lasts over time...

Until it's new and with no feedback, it's probably a good idea unless you are a daredevil.

The situation is like this: they hired our parents to destroy this world, and now they'd like to put us to work rebuilding it, and -- to add insult to injury -- at a profit.

After reading through the feedback we have decided we will considering dropping the minimum amount you can sell us,
(How much would you like it to be?)

We have also decided we are staying in phase one, purely buying coins until either PayPal support Bitcoin in the future (fingers crossed) or we find another service like PayPal, where we can mold a similar service.

We would also like to apologize for giving a less than speedy response to a few recent enquiries.
Due to other commitments, the team haven't been able to commit as much as we would like to but we shall respond as soon as possible.

Also, Pleasure doing business with everyone who has so far, we've even had our first return customer! (yey Smiley) Thank you!

Kind Regards,
btc2pp
