I'm also curious about the "Restricted Content" that some users are given access too as stated in the Terms of Service. Details?
This term allows us to block some site features (like selling items) when we think that something is fishy at users side.
Also, is there really any benefit to getting verified? Do you gain special privileges?
For some type of items which cannot be protected by escrow and which have a high rate of fraud attempts (such as reversible gift cards, paypal etc) we require users to get verified.
I'm sick of people buying my items without reading the listing first. If it says i ship to the US, why do people keep buying from around the world?! Half the bitcoin community are genius, the other half, illiterate.
I just fixed this problem for you! People cannot order from you anymore if they choose a shipping address country you are not shipping to.
I purchased an item and, like an idiot, used my CampBX account to pay for it. The seller cancelled the item and I have no idea where the 0.99428 BTC will be refunded, whether to my Bitmit account (I sure hope so) or to the address owned by CampBX.
So far it's still just sitting in this wallet:
https://blockchain.info/address/1559VdGeVxYNWePq77LR7GyvZ5pJbo3HoSI haven't seen any funds go back to the
address that the coins came from, but they're also not in my Bitmit account.
If it goes back to the CampBX wallet, I'll take it up with their support and maybe get the funds back sometime before my toddler is grown (CampBX support is extremely slow).
Can anybody shed some light on what will most likely happen?
Bitcoins will never flow from Bitmit to any wallet without a user hitting the withdraw button. If you buy without success or sell with success, you always end up with a balance in your wallet, so don't worry about bitmit sending your money to random addresses. This is not satoshi dice.
Bitcoins are always credited to your Bitmit wallet and never automatically sent back to one of the senders wallet btc address. Just check out yuor Bitmit wallet, I am sure you will find the funds there!
Currently I am updating some stuff under the hood of Bitmit. So far Bitmit is fixed to btc as the only payment method and after the checkout the invoice/order page shows all prices in btc and indeed the prices are also saved in btc. This is a limitation I want to get rid of. I believe many of us (merchants, people who need to show the bitmit invoice to customs etc) prefer to see the item currency as main one and after that the btc price incl. conversion rate on the order page. Besides of that we can easily add other payment methods as well then.
