According to their posts on reddit, they are the same people as TorATM. They say if you had an account before it should still work.
They have a few bugs around though. If governments ban clearnet exchanges this kind of thing might be the only matching engine around.

I put an order in to buy btc a few weeks ago. I'm willing to send off one banknote in the mail to see if it works. It seems pretty dead though. I don't really have high hopes.

This would be pretty handy in China right now.

No, they took customers BTCs and disappeared.

Appears to be down. Is this still going?

The fee starts at 6% for sellers, people selling twenty dollar bills for bitcoins. As they make more transactions it goes down to 1% on their 10th successful transaction. This is meant to reward honest trading and avoid having an initial charge for a seller account.

Comparable services usually have a initial charge to sell, and SR recently raised their fee to 10% fee.

Buyers have 0% fee since we cannot realistically issue a fee to buyers.

Yeah, there was a issue with one of our background jobs, that should not happen again. Please feel free to contact support if you have any issues, they usually have a fast response time.

Also if you have any specific questions about how the site works please feel free to ask, I will do my best to answer them.

I swear I made a post here and it is gone...

I deposited 13 hours ago - no credit to account. Beware.

Edit: After about 150 confirmations it showed up, but the site is confusing.

So the fee is 6%??

We are looking to hire translators specifically Mandarin and Cantonese. We pay in bitcoins, PM or contact us on the site if you are interested.

We recently added an AUD market to the exchange.

TorATM is an exchange that can be considered a cross between MtGox and the Money section of Bitmit or SilkRoad. We provide a trading engine that automatically matches your order to the best market price. Allowing you immediately match up for cash-in-mail exchange between users with escrow.

You can review each potential order and cancel and be re-matched until you successfully complete you order. Larger orders are matched with several smaller orders until they are completely matched or canceled.

We use a web-of-trust relational rating system, where members can relate to one another and share increases and decreases in trust proportional to their distance.

We recently have opened up EUR, CAD, GBP, AUD and USD markets.

We except to open more as we translate our site to other languages, please contact us if you are interested in helping with translations. We pay in bitcoins.

We take precautions to delete transaction details after a short period and will protect our communities privacy at all costs, allowing you to buy or sell bitcoins without having a bank account. This service seeks to allow anyone with access to tor and a twenty dollar bill, soon in any currency, increasing overall access to bitcoins.

If anyone has any questions, I will do my best to check this thread and answer them.
