Can you break down what the fees are with this service? Sorry if this is a repost.

How does one find out the price? Only after making a request?


This is correct.

Simply submit a request through the help desk and I will happily assist you.

Thanks.
Well, since the price is tied to Bitstamp (pretty sure it's Bitstamp after they switched from MtGox, right?), you have a pretty good idea of how much you'll be paying (or being paid) even before you get a quote.

Why do you want to set a threshold of $400

Frankly.......it isn't worth the effort for amounts less than that for both the sellers and myself.

Additionally, it minimizes the sheer volume of deposits into seller's bank accounts in an attempt to maintain a lower profile at their banks.

For those of you who have yet to watch these videos, I highly suggest spending the three hours. They are worth every minute.

The first video is a recent video with Joe Rogan interviewing, or shall I say, being educated on bitcoin by Andreas Antonopoulos

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1cexawnOlR8

The second video is Tuur Demeester speaking at the 2013 Bitcoin Conference

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K7LQu-eIOO0

They are really great videos. Lovein it!

It's something to be aware of, the thread OP was updated & yes it can still happen, it's not meant to, it will likely take hours to sort out, the person reversing the deposit is effectively stealing the money from the bank & not you, but you may get tared with the same brush though as the bank may suspect you of doing something that attracts dodgy scammers, ie selling irreversible crypto for cash deposits which they may argue is not something they like you to do with a personal account or even a business one for that matter so they may just shut down your accounts anyway. Solution, to wait one day = np.

Sure in theory it can happen, but the bitcoin-broker system and procedure prevents this from any ill effect and protects all parties.
Copies of the receipt and information of the teller including their phone number accepting the deposit are recorded.  If a bank violates its procedure, and a harm is suffered from a bank processing the fraudulent reversal, the bank is strictly liable.
So not only would any issue like this be swiftly resolved, it could turn into the proverbial "bank error in your favor" due to the banks liability in the matter.
Banks are insured for this sort of thing, but the tiny amounts transacted through this service wouldn't reach the deductible.
The fraudulent depositor who did so under camera has the biggest risk here, probably not worth it for a scammer.

tl;dr - I hope it happens to me.

Just in case any btc sellers aren't yet aware, cash deposits in to many US banks can be reversed later the same day, even when a deposit slip has been stamped (or printed out) & online banking shows the funds deposited, so unless you know that you can trust the buyer best not to release coins until the day after cash has been deposited, perhaps even withdraw it from your account first if in any doubt.

Doesn't the link you posted show the opposite of what you claim here?
The cash deposit can not be reversed without the permission of the account holder.
If something else happens, it is bank error and the money given back to the account holder.
That's the debate, though. There's a reasonable chance it would take a lawsuit to make the bank admit this, and most people can't afford a lawsuit against a bank, even if they're moderately wealthy and in the right.

Nah, the bank has way more to lose from a lawsuit than a customer.  A letter from a lawyer is plenty to get things set right.
Filing a suit with such excellent just cause, would be a landslide win. 
If this ever happens to you, let me know.  This would be a fun case, and the settlement would be sweet (no way they would let this go to trial).

Used them again a couple days ago, smooth transaction.

I priced it next to localbitcoins and it was ~2% cheaper than the seller I was going to buy from on LBC when all fees were said and done.

I find it funny how a few people troll the OP in this and his other thread when he's offering a legit service.
