I would like to put together a private customer base and eliminate the need for third party escrow and deal with buyers directly.
I'd not like to discourage you but nobody 'd like to deal (bhy going first) with a member ranked user & if you try to go first with newbies (or scammers) you're likely to get into huge loss.we need to know if BTC buyers can deal with the initial check and verification process or if they find this too invasive.
AFAIK, 90% of the bitcoiners (buyers) 'll find this too invasive I'd guess.P.S.-> BTW, what/which type of verification process you're thinking of?
Thanks for your input. To elaborate a bit; the base I'm starting with are customers I've developed a history with from past transactions over the years. For them, I would like to do away with escrow and most if not all are on board with this and no ID check is required from them. The problem comes in when new customers wish to come on board thus the need check and verification. The check/verification will only require a selfie of your state ID or driver's license. I also have access to additional resources if I have to dig a little deeper beyond the selfie.
