Thanks for the help everyone! I was counting on the help of this community as I set up this venture. I'll be doing more research on the selling price of bitcointalk accounts and adjust prices accordingly.
Also, I'll be looking into escrow. The only reason I'm worried escrow might not be a viable option for such short-term loans, is because I'm thinking the fees will probably cut into profits too much. I'll probably have to offer an escrow and no-escrow interest rate.

It's true that I'm not in fact buying accounts, just giving loans with them as collateral.

He isn't buying accounts, he is accepting accounts as collateral for loans. Although a lot of the time that is a distinction without a difference I always prefer escrow will you??

I Would probably lower the value of full member accounts. I recently auctioned one for .065 btc, although it was a short auction.
The fact that it takes such a short time to become a full member and that so many people have been farming accounts means that full members tend to go for a lot less then their earnings potential

All collateral should be held by a trusted third party.
