Topic: Is there any site like purse.io ? (Read 1742 times)

The effort you made to talk about them is SUS AF.

In a different board:

Trying to pose as a user when you actually own the service is yikes. Good luck getting people from here.

Id suggest you to do what the brawker website was doing. find someone on this forum  who would like to buy btc so they order the item for you and you send them bitcoin. That way you can reduce the chance of being scammed because Jenia1 just recently posted about being scammed. Also, there are users that are offering escrow services so it's pretty much unlikely to be scammed.


EDIT: Just saw that Welsh has said, pretty much, the same thing. That would after all be the best solution for you.

you can try

i tried once, and my order arrived, the processing fee at that time was around $7

they seems legit and the service is good

I'm not sure what your trying to get at, but you can certainly find an escrow who is willing to purchase the item, or hold the item, or hold the funds until the transaction is complete. In fact, I trust escrows such as Ognasty and SebastianJu more than I trust a unknown website with little history.

You may find the best person who is manage as escrow in most of the deals here in the forum. When you want purchase the good like you do in Amazon. Here in the forum is little similar to that but all the purchase cannot be done without no one scammed you. That is the reason people here in the forum mostly go with the escrows to handle the trade.
To see exactly like a purse site. Still we are lacking in that and no one is creating such site give a bypass to purchase the products in world fame e-store sites.

You could try the marketplace sub forum here, deal with escrow only and you could probably find some willing members to purchase some items off of Amazon for you close to market price or even below it, you would only need to pay a little extra on the escrow to assure that the deal runs smooth.

Forgive me for raising the topic from the dead but I just want to share my story in every possible thread regarding purse.io that exists out there

basically, I (the seller) got scammed for 2.1 BTC at the time 9600 usd today over 16000 usd by the buyer Franko_Prime on their platform.
long story short- I have sold an ASIC unit there , for the first time in my life i signed up for that website and used their services. the buyer had over 61 reviews and claimed that I have sent the wrong item. A claim has been opened where i provided a whatsapp chat where the buyer admits that he has released the money and now its just purse that is holding it- a lie of course. also the tracking label  showed 2 boxes ( the asic and the PSU ) of a total weight of 8.5 KG where the buyer has taken a fake image of one not original box with a bunch of fans... if one uses his brains for just a second he would see that these fans can never weigh 8.5KG and that its only 1 box and not two.
They said that my evidence is not enough and have sided with the buyer. which has only provided a fake image which theoretically everybody can do.
I have sent them The below shown message, to several representatives after they have sided with the buyer, nobody cared enough to reply. I am now suing their asses.



Dear purse team,
Recently I have sold an L3+ bitmain asic unit for a price of 2.17795041 BTC to the member Franko_Prime on your platform Purse.io. this transaction ended up in me losing the asic unit, the electricity spent on during the time I mined for him while waiting to ship it to him and the BTC then transferred to him for that mining, and last but not least the above described BTC mount which in the current time of writing, is equal to 12,416.9090 USD according to coinmarketcap.com excluding your fees.
Your conducted escrow’s investigation on the matter of the opened case is at the least entirely amateurish and at the most criminal. The shopper Franko_Prime did not provide any solid evidence to back his claims that I am scamming him except a random made picture that does not coincide with any of the proof I have provided.
1. The DHL shipping label shows that 2 packages have been sent, while Franko_Prime shows only one in his fake picture.
2. The DHL shipping label shows a total weight of 8.5 KG for both packages, while what is seen on the image are a bunch of fans which clearly have a substantially lower weight.
3. The package shown on the image is not the same package as was shipped to him.
I demand to know based on which evidence from him, have you decided to rule in his favor. Needless to say that in the same way he could have simply taken an image of a package full with sand and presented it to you as evidence.
I have provided you with a DETAILED whatsapp conversation that shows in the last couple of lines of it that he said that he has already released the payment! On which I replied that there is still nothing at my balance, to which he replied that it takes time for purse to release the payment and when I was starting to get impatient with him, he opened a case. I have also provided a detailed DHL shipping label/invoice, I offered to contact DHL and ask for the exact dimensions of the shipping boxes so that it can be compared to his fake image and lastly I even sent you a message saying I am willing to undergo a liar detector test.
This should have all been enough evidence, but you messaged me saying that the evidence was not enough and ruled in his favor. Now I ask you again, what proof does he have? If you needed some more proof for me why not simply ask me? What is this hasty and unprofessional behavior on your side with taking 2.17795041 BTC away from me without a substantial investigation? Is it always the case when a highly rated user opens a case against a new user on your platform that you side with the former without conducting a thorough investigation?
I demand to see the proof provided by him that has caused you to rule the way you have. I also demand to be compensated for the FULL amount that I have lost due to your irresponsibility. If my demands will not be met I will take legal action against you and will not refrain from taking this case on various social networks such as facebook,twitter, bitcointalk and more. Also I will gather more information from users that have experienced the same amateurish and potentially illegal service from you and will consider filing a class action against you.
Also, I wonder how come I cannot access this on my previous Orders to be able and see the conversation fully.



bottom line. AVOID LIKE FIRE

I suggest shopawl since i think they open there site to become a third party site on ebay but actually i don't know if there successful to launch that since i only see there thread once and don't visit there anymore, just try to look up for their thread on service announcement section so you could see the services they offered and can inquire more regarding on your wants and questions.

But i don't think they will be able to give discount just like in purse. Shopawl works on different model like buying items from marketplaces with their own paypal/credit card fund and charge a little bit of fee where as purse allow other people who want to buy bitcoin with credit card so people will try to give more than 10% discount easily.

Lets see how shopawl will work in future, but for now purse.io don't seem to have any alternative.

I think shopawl plan to add Amazon too. they already created  a thread in this forum asking if people want to add Amazon in thier services. 

Recently I have heard that shopawl is going to add amazon shopping in their site. If they ad this option then it will be the same like purse or will be more better then purse because the members of shopawl are more active nowadays for their service.

There is nothing but i have heard about ipayyou recently making it possible to deposit funds in amazon wallet using bitcoin check this https://news.bitcoin.com/ipayyou-bitcoin-amazon-shopping/

Also you can try buying amazon gift cards for bitcoin from paxful or localbitcoins.

This https://shopawl.com/

But they haven't supported about amazon, In his thread was confirming about providing such service was linking into the amazon like purse.io
Wait about the further ANN from them.

AFAIK, there's nothing similar to purse.io, they are the only place where we can put our Amazon Wishlist.
Unless, you want to post your offer at Marketplace and wait until someone is interested on your offer.
Other option is to buy Amazon gift card from Digital goods  section or gyft.com

Do you have any problem with Purse.io ? they are trusted as I have used their service multiple times without trouble.

Is there any similar site like purse.io where we can buy sameone something from amazon for btc?
