I wonder if these type of trade can really go through?...
Let's say, the hero member quotes a price, buyer thinks is too high, negotiate a bit, deal turns sour, buyer keep on giving hero member negative trust comments (with multiple dummy accounts). Hero member not hugely affected, still looses out.
When the hero member quotes a low/reasonable price, gives the buyer an address, buyer sends bitcoins, hero member can choose to default (basically scams the buyer). The buyer has nowhere to report this, except giving hero member negative trust.
If a hero member contacts the buy with his true username, they have to agree on a price. If not, hero member is at a disadvantage. So naturally, hero member will not disclose his id until the deal finishes, but then the buyer will not pay until he knows he is paying for a real hero account.
Will there be a successful trade? We will never know

I am looking to buy unused/spare Hero Member ID & Pass ( bitcointalk forum) . PM me your offer.
How can hero account would be unused?
And how about all you people stick to topic instead of offtopic talk.
that's dumb, it is easy to know when an account has changed owner if you have access to the server.
you can make an IP log and make an automatic system that judges if an account usage location has changed or not. (a very simple neural network could do this easily)

IP logs don't really work because some people like to remain anonymous and will open this via Tor/VPN. If they get a different IP every time how would you know if it is a different person. Anyways, I'm not the person who sets the rules, go talk to theymos.
It is suspicious, but KWH is right, the action of buying/selling forum accounts is allowed here.
Btw, you should not trust a person just because he has been active or is a hero member.
The account could have been hacked, or have been sold, or simply the owner have turned to the dark side.
Tradefortress is a VIP (donated 50btc to bitcointalk), and has gone with 4000+ btc.
John K was a mod, and has been MIA for 2 months now.
Now this is shocking, if someone with reputation of mods or VIP can do that I don't understand whom to trust, even trusting members with Good +trust rating is not safe because People are selling trust here, how low it will go from there..!!!!!!!! Thank god i have good connections outside this forum too..! There are few members I came across on this forum who are very genuine and I respect them , but if someone with VIP status can turn into a scammer[only if thats true] its very hard to trust anyone.

I didn't realize John K is gone now. Darn, I was going to use him for escrow. Is there any other reputable escrow people active?
If this type of transactions continues bitcoin talk will loose credibility, because scammers can buy sr member account and do anything with it.
The mods have already said that while they do not condone it, they aren't banning it for the sheer reason that even if it was banned it would still be quite easily possible to sell accounts without much knowledge of the mods/staff. So they allow it so that it's easier to be transparent and know who is doing what.

Otherwise, why would someone donate 50btc for "VIP" tag, and pay 10000btc for a pizza

I agree but people look at peoples trust and make decisions based on it.
Obviously if the owner of the account is not the person that built up that trust it is worthless.

:/ buying hero status, a mod should be aware of this. This is extremely suspicious.just sayin'
While I don't condone it, it has been allowed in the recent past.
[/quote
seriously?
that is so suspicious.
There is no way it should be allowed, people trust long standing members and this would open up massive scam opportunities.
