I require at least 1 confirmation on the bitcoin transaction before I'll send payment. Exact time payment will be sent will be indicated when we make the deal, but will always be less than 24 hours and generally less than 6 hours.
How do I contact you?
Please PM me here to sell me BTC, I will provide you a quote and an address to send to if you accept the quote. Once received I will pay you in the method of your choice.
Do not re-use an address I've given you in the past. I use a new address for every transaction and I discard the private keys once I send/spend the bitcoins that I received at an address. Therefore it is very important that you get a new address from me and do not re-use an address to send bitcoins to me in the future if we ever engage in another transaction.
You can also find me on localbitcoins.com: https://localbitcoins.com/accounts/profile/danny.hamilton/
If you already have my txt number or email from a previous deal, you can use that to contact me as well.
Who sends first?
You send payment first. I have a substantial reputation here at bitcoin talk, however, if you are concerned we can use Escrow.
Will you accept escrow?
Yes, but you pay the escrow fees. I'll work with any of the top 5 escrow providers on the Escrow Whitelist. At the moment (2014-03-09) that means: John K., escrow.ms, Tomatocage, OgNasty, (and of course myself
)See my Escrow thread found below in my signature, or my trust page for more details on my reputation.
Do you have a minimum or maximum we can sell to you?
The maximum for MoneyGram is the listed above. The maximum for all payment methods is whatever the amount of cash I have on hand for purchasing, which is also highlighted above. There is no minimum, but I reserve the right to refuse to deal with someone who becomes abusive (example of "abusive": requesting to sell $5 of bitcoin repeatedly).
I understand my prices might be low, please feel free to sell to other people through other means.
If you have a payment method that you would like to know if I can use to make payment, please PM me! The above methods are the only ones I know of and have used before, but I'm willing to consider other payment methods. I won't use paypal. I won't use any method that requires me to have a bank account. I won't use any reversible payment systems.
On request, I can sign a message with my GPG key (public key found in my Escrow thread in my signature) before agreeing to a trade to confirm that you are actually communicating with me and the my account hasn't been hacked.
