Sorry but it would be pretty hard to explain to my parents that I've sent someone an item without even receiving any money for it. To be honest, I knew that people were going to call this a scam  the minute I said that I'm not going to accept escrow. If I wanted to it I could have scammed people for 10x as much but I didn't.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying you are trying to scam people, I have no reason to believe that. What I said is that it is awkward you demand people trust you to do business with you and you refuse to trust others based on your very own metrics. I have dealt with a LOT more bitcoins than you, have had plenty of opportunity to steal truck loads of coins but have not. That means nothing for future events and that's why we use an escrow service we both can trust on most deals done here. I mean, how long have you been around? I could point you to a number of long time members that were the archetype of honesty and one day disappeared, taking other people's bitcoins in the process, it is just the way it is.

Still, best of luck selling the RPI, it is a fairly good deal with the bundle you propose, though not good enough to justify taking risks (*) even for a small amount of coins.

(*) - and if it was a good enough deal to take the risk it would likely fall in the category of "If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is".

I understand all of your points but as I've said I have to answer to my parents and they are already not that happy with me trading bitcoins.

What are you like 13??? XD sorry my mums the same but at the end of the day it keeps me on my feet and above water Cheesy

Sorry the terms are very clear in the original post. I can still get screwed over by escrow. For example you can lie about the condition of the item. If you have a look on my trust people have sent me about 10x as much in pre-order money for my usb sticks and everything worked out fine. Just ask them about their trades with me. I really don't mind if you don't buy this from me because there will always be buyers who want to purchase the item from me and as i've said before this not something that I need to sell quickly.

That's fine, thanks anyway. I don't mind trusting others, really, but when someone says "trust me, others can vouch for me" and then says "I trust noone, no matter how trusted they are in the community" it really says a lot about the risks involved.

Sorry definitely not sending first. This package is being sent via royal mail airsure small package (insured for up to £50).  I've just checked airsure and it turns out that I can lower the shipping price to £10. If you want extra protection you can purchase it via ebay.

So you understand why I won't send first either, as you can assert that if you can't trust me then I definitely can't trust you Smiley

Back to escrow then, will you accept it? Buying through ebay and paying fees is a no-go, you'd have to lower your price, otherwise it is just as expensive to buy though the distributor and then I have warranty and can write off the expense.

isn't £15 a little steep for EU delivery? How much does the whole package weight?

Anyway, I'm buying one this week, might be yours otherwise I'll just order from Farnell. Give me a better shipping price (I'll pay for the actual postage cost, I'm sure it's a third of what you are asking) and either accept escrow or you send first (if I can trust you, I'm sure you can trust me more) and we have a deal.

Let me know if it interests you.

ok, then I offer 0.45 BTC for the whole bundle (Pi, case, cable, sd card. if that is correct?).

(I'm based in the UK)

Sorry, I'm not accepting any offers since I'm not looking for a quicksale.

Does it come with a power cable?

Yup it comes with a cable. I've also just realized that I made a mistake in the listing. THIS IS A 512MB RASPBERRY PI there is no 521mb version.

I'll offer 0.25BTC for the Pi alone. No other accessories required. Shipping to UK.

Sorry but I would prefer to sell the entire "package" mainly because its much harder to sell a used sd card and a rpi case on their own. Thanks for the offer

U accept escrow? I'm from EU

Check your pm. I'm not accepting escrow if you have an issue trusting me just check my trust. I'm not going to scam you over such a small amount and loose my rep.
