Thanks. It turned out that it actually is/was her, but the deal pretty much evaporated.

Sent you a few questions via PM, to your CrissyCris account.
Thanks Danny, I didn't realize that there were some other conflicts going on here.
I'll let the dust settle and check back in for any new developments
Thanks for taking the time to work on this one.

Okay, I'm here. I can still do business; feedback left on my actual account of course. When my 3 day ban is over, I'll log in to leave feedback.

I see in the following post that you are leaving bitcointalk and selling your account:
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/3-day-account-ban-756093
Since you are leaving the forum, does that mean that you are no longer selling those bitcoins?
I've had a few people ask me to hold escrow for the transaction, but I don't want to waste time writing up escrow agreements if you are no longer going to be participating in the transaction.

On a thousand bucks, the fee is $86 for same day pickup, or $60 for 3-day pickup (yuck).
Holy smokes .......Sorry for trolling your thread, but I was also not aware, that the fees was that high!
No wonder people are complaining and using BTC for this now... Modern Day light robbery.
I'm away for the next ?? hours, feel free to PM me or post and I'll respond as soon as possible.
Yes mam, and now you can see why buying btc in $100/$200/etc portions from you via NFCU made/makes perfect sense (Why should I worry about the seller getting me, if I KNOW that WU is going to get me lol...)
EDIT: On the other hand, I could care less about the ~$2 it costs to whip up a USPS money order, if you prefer one of those.

It's all good Cris. Like I mentioned in PM I realize you've had a lot of interesting things happen, I do completely understand why your guard is up.

Just know that I'm here and ready to buy 2 btc from you, through escrow is perfectly fine.
EDIT: You know what is ironic... it only costs $14 in WU fees to send to China for same-day service, which makes trading with shdvb very cost-effective.

I tell you what, to put your mind at ease, maybe this would be a better offer...
How about I make a USPS money order for the price of the entire 2 btc. I then contact Danny Hamilton (escrow), I pay any fees (or tips) as they may be.
Danny Hamilton's thread:

That way you get the entire amount in one lump sum, and I prove that I'm bringing you a legit offer...and give you "peace of mind" you referred to earlier...
EDIT: Left message in his thread, hoping that he can help us out with this.

Don't do the trust thing then... I'm not worried about that, since you are now raising an issue with it.
shdvb is a verified and trustworthy exchanger in this forum, you would be wise to not dispute that fact. He runs bunnycredits.com.
There is nothing odd about me wanting to trade in smaller increments, especially if I send first. Remember, I posted my offer here in your thread, and you acknowledged it.
If you have now decided that you don't want to trade or are having second thoughts, I have no issues with that either.
EDIT: I forgot to comment on WU... that's way too expensive for this trade, I'm not interested in the WU fee. It would be much more cost-effective for me to go a mile out of my way and just make deposits.

Ok, so you'll just PM me the info I need to make the deposit, correct? I can PM the btc address to send to once you see it.
I'm not judging, but you're not trying to vamp up your trust are you? I took a scroll through your trust and that of your recent trade. It's pretty obvious what shdvb's up to. It doesn't help that you felt the need to remind me to give you positive trust:
May I please have 2 btc at bitstamp rate? (No discount)
NFCU cash deposit. The location isn't exactly close to me, but most weekday mornings I should be able to swing by.
I will send (deposit) an amount first...maybe $100 or so to start, I've read enough where I am totally comfortable with that. Maybe after the first transaction we go back and forth sending first until we reach somewhere around 2 btc exchanged, or however you're most comfortable. I can provide receipts as well if necessary.
Mutual trust exchange at the end of the deal too please
Thoughts?

It's just odd that originally you wanted 2BTC first, now just in $100 increments? Since the location isn't all that close to you, it might be best to use WU, just saying.
Ok, so you'll just PM me the info I need to make the deposit, correct? I can PM the btc address to send to once you see it.
Yes, I am very familiar with escrow, but like I mentioned I'm comfortable not using it for this trade. I appreciate you reiterating it though, it shows good character.
Sure, if you can explain to me how the access code thing works, I'll kick things off, most likely tomorrow morning.

You would just go into a branch to make a deposit into the account. They'll give you a receipt that will have the number, the amount and date. I don't need the receipt - I'll know when it's been deposited. The receipt is just proof that you deposited funds in case I never send your coins - it's for your protection.
I have asked that you all post in this thread. There are all types of scams out there, so to protect myself - as well as to bring to light any attempted scams so we're all aware.
Here's PM log with ruggedman_dan. I'm not saying ruggedman_dan is a scammer or that he tried to scam me, but he's been suspected of taking MP funds from a user here: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/80-mp-for-btc-600079 That issue is still unresolved. Also it appears that he's done business with team8652 (positive feedback) who's also trying to get me to send first. The majority of ruggedman_dan's feedback are from new members - and there's no reference link for trades from members with positive feedback themselves. It didn't help that when I offered for him to send first he changed his mind.
I'll give you 1% of you buy 3 coins. If I'm going to use LBC escrow, I might as well sell them there and at a premium. I'd rather use someone here on this site for escrow.
I don't mind using the Walmart transfer either...
Also, escrow is to protect the buyer, so you'll have to cover the cost. Most of the guys here don't actually charge anything. It's to protect you - not me, because I'm the one who's selling. You are always free to pay first if you don't want to use escrow here. And I won't be pressured into thinking that I'm going to lose out if it's done within the next couple of hours.
I don't want to do a deal via PM, as stated in my original post. Please reach out to me in the open first. We can deal with the specifics via PM.
I will say this again - I will NOT go first. Please find someone to use for escrow. Please don't PM asking for me to go first. If so, I will post the PM here.

Hi,
I responded to you in thread. I'd like to do as much communication as possible for transparency.
What's up?
I responded to you in thread. I'd like to do as much communication as possible for transparency.
What's up?
Yes I like to make my trades public as well.
I would like to buy 2 bitcoins from you at a rate of Bitstamp -1%. I always welcome escrow, but I do like to point out that I have good rep and I have had people send me thousands of dollars first, without escrow. No issues, just good trades.
I prefer to use localbitcoins.com for escrow.
Western Union is ok, but I would prefer to use Walmart to Walmart transfer. It works just like a Western Union except you have to pick it up at Walmart and the fees are cheaper.
Let me know what you think. I would like to do this in the next few hours. Thanks!

The most I can buy today is 2.5 BTC.
Of course you can always sell on LBC at a premium, but I am a trusted buyer. On LBC, all types of jerks open trades an never really intend to complete them. I only suggested them as escrow because using their system is so much faster and efficient than waiting around for an escrow guy here. We can trade at our own pace instead of being on someone else's watch.
Anyway, if you find an escrow agent here in the next few hours, great. We can do that. You can also send first and we can make the whole thing public.
My offers are:
2.5 BTC at Bitstamp -1%
2 BTC at Bitstamp last
I cover all sending fees but you cover escrow if you'd prefer to use it.
Let me know. Thanks.
Hi, I'm good with 2.5 BTC at Bitstamp -1% I will not send first... you only just recently got your feedback in the last couple of weeks, yet your account is from 2013. How do I know this isn't a sold account? Of course you can always sell on LBC at a premium, but I am a trusted buyer. On LBC, all types of jerks open trades an never really intend to complete them.

I actually have rep that goes back even before the trust system existed. Just do a last post search on me. I have been trading here for a long time. I just have been more active as of late because I have a little money to play with.
Anyway I am fine with your terms and all and I am not trying to rush you. But I am a busy guy. I work and I have a 2 year old so I don't have all day to wait on an escrow guy.
But you are the one who wants escrow so you'll have to find the guy you want to do it. I already offered my solution.
I would like to trade with you but I am trying to get this done by 7PM EST at the latest. So it is on you now.
Thanks.
Hi, I suggested escrow because I'm not sending first. If you'd like, you can gladly send payment first. I'll then the coins once it's confirmed that I have payment in hand. Again, escrow is for your benefit - not mine. If you want to deal without escrow, that's fine - but I'm not sending first. You've been around for a while, you know this.

No thanks.
I will just wait for my usual sellers to get more coin.
Thanks anyway.
Of course - that's what I thought. I'm posting all of our PMs in the thread by the way. Not because I think you're a scammer, but because that was the requirement. I will just wait for my usual sellers to get more coin.
Thanks anyway.

Hi,
Yes, I'm good with that. I'll give you my access code when you're ready (isn't my bank account number)... That's your proof of deposit. Once I recieve I'll gladly send btc. Also, it would be in your best interest to find someone for escrow. I'm not going to scam you, but it's for your peace of mind.
