Guys I dont own the store. If I refer someone, I get paid. That is why I did not write the name of the store. Sorry. You can also meet in anywhere to transact but I wrote Grandbazaar because it is a wellknow public place. Also if you have Turkish bank account, It is possible to wire the money in your bank account But you can easily do it with localbitcoins too.

There is a contradiction in the story, you said "We have an office in Grandbazaar" and then scrapped it "Guys I dont own the store.."
The problem is that making a deal in a public place "especially famous and open to tourists" is used by thieves to steal money as foreigners do not know much about the geography of the place.
Many prefer to conduct transactions in less crowded places such as cafes and others or using some legal stores.
It may be better for you to promote the service using localbitcoin or try to follow legal means if Turkey allows cryptocurrencies.

I think they won't be easy to stealing from tourists because they use Bitcoin instead of paper money. Unless they threaten to provide their wallet data. People really should be able to transact in a crowded and famous place to avoid theft or robbery. Moreover, these tourists do not really know the situation in Grandbazaar.

It's really risky to cash out from a strangers.if your country accept crypto then your company can arrange ATM.better to cash out btc from localbitcoin or paxfull. Because its risky to cash out from a stranger that we met in online.

MATHRex and enhu are typical of majority of "bitcoiners". They probably own some bitcoin, but have never really transacted, much less on the p2p sites they claim to prefer. So don't worry about them. Their choice of affiliations should help you decide if their opinions are worth it or not.

That been said, probably best to offer cash out in a safer way. Prepaid cards, for example, so people don't worry about fake bills, very common also in bazaar exchanges.

I have just edited the post. We can meet anywhere. I wrote Grandbazaar because every tourist in Istanbul visits the place. It would be easy for them but anywhere you feel secure guys. These deals happen every single day in Grandbazaar:)

I can see why you guys are afraid but most of the tourists in Istanbul visit the Grandbazaar for shopping. They also buy jewelries and gold. This is from one of the stores located in Grand Bazaar. Instead of buying jewelry or gold, you can cash out bitcoin. The risk is the same as paying for the jewelry. You can pay for the jewelry and you can't get your money. Believe it or not, large amount of bitcoins transactions happenes in Grand Bazaar. https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/8qlnz7/bitcoin_accepted_in_550_year_old_istanbul_market/

So you own that SANTRA store?

I have bad experience in meetups really and so its hard to trust anyone while walking where they know you have cash in your pocket. I once did a transaction inside a mall which after the meetup I kept seeing two guys behind the me while looking into the mirrors of the stores I passby. It would sound like a movie while I tell this to my friends but it can't be that careless. Moral lesson is that money is the root of all evil, people will kill for it.

I'm glad to see everyone are accepting Bitcoin for daily use from anywhere in this world. It means, Bitcoin community is strong and becoming stronger day by day.

Is this service legal and accepted by the government right there or just like a personal trade?

While I understand what you are trying to convey here, it would be good for any prospect seller of Bitcoin who is visiting your country to know the details of the exchanger. Do you have a website, perhaps where details can be found easily? Please share those details (especially name of the outfit) rather than just your Telegram handle...this is one way we can inspire more trust and confidence towards you and your service offering.

Please be aware that there are many scammers lurking around and since I am sure you are not one of them, sharing more information can be helpful. You can definitely offer your services here and we do value merchants like you. In case I would decide to pay a visit to your county and location and I need to convert my Bitcoin to local money, I will remember you.

You don't tell us your name store, Even Grand Bazzar is big market in Istanbul. https://www.theguideistanbul.com/grand-bazaar-guide/
For guide people, you have to tell what your store's name and better with map instruction.

Have you posted your service here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=133.0 ?

Metting a random person from the internet for trading Bitcoins in a foreign country is a really stupid idea and the worst way to go.
Better to use localbitcoins website and trade with verified people.

Yes,I agree with you.I use localbitcoins to cash my btc.It's very safe.

I can't imagine what could happen if things go wrong. I see myself sodomized inside a penitentiary building like the stories I've seen in TV series Lockup Abroad. You'd rather be doing it here in the forum exchange currency section of bticointalk, there are people willing to buy your coins without you having to meetup. Be safe do not do it in any country where you don't have any one you can trust.

That is a good service, but you can't get good number of consumers using your service. Better initiate a service that attracts local community. Have cashing out of bitcoins in exchange for cash as an additional service to it. These days people have much more services that makes the cashing out of bitcoins easier.

Edit: We can use other places to deal too. Such as headquarters of our company or somewhere you feel secure.
