I've been reading the b1tc0in thread for about an hour or so, and I'm fairly surprised no one else mentions l0c@lbitcoins.com. This is the site I've been using for quite some time and I'm decently happy with it. It's very easy to use and the fee is about 16-ish%(I always buy with p@y-p@l which, from what i've seen, usually carries a higher fee than other payment methods. So my question is, do other people just not know about this site or am I missing something? I'd rather NOT pay $47 and the friends & family fee when purchasing $335 of b1tc0in, but it's the best option I've found. Somebody please enlighten me or praise me :)   Either way, I'd love to hear some feedback from you guys...thanks!

 
I want to correct myself from my last post...my figure of 16-ish% is off. I wound up paying $346.18 for $288.38 in b1tc0in($57.80 extra) I don't know how to calculate %, but will somebody that can let me know what I wound up paying? I still think it's pretty good, especially paying with p@y-p@l. I've seen a few other sites charge crazy amounts when going that route...Anyways, thanks for hearing me out my fellow DBG'ers and hopefully someone finds something useful or at least interesting in these 2 posts of mine. Take care everyone.

 
@Jscoll22 I think it used to be a lot more popular when it was non-KYC.  Most people seem to want both convenience and low charge.  So like with C@sh@pp, 288$ worth of btc might cost me a 4-5 dollar fee.  Most people would rather pay a 4$ fee that a 58$ fee.  Or people would rather just go to a btc atm and only pay a 10% fee.  Plus there are some atms which are non-kyc.  And yes, on localbitcoin Paypal incurs the highest fees usually.  I havent used it in years, but i have used localmonero a bunch.  Regardless, its definitely a viable options for folks who need alternative methods of payment and can deal with high fees depending on method!

 
Are btc atm's typically that low? I live in a small town and a really grungy convenience store just installed one. What's the process? Pay with card and load on a thumb drive? Also, from reading your post, it sounds like c@sh@pp is the way to go...would that be your #1 recommendation if you had to make one? I appreciate all the info...I go WU when I can, but I don't want to burn it up, ya know...

 
as for recommendation, it really just depends on whats important to you and whats convenient.  For some, trying to figure out a completely non-kyc route is best, and for others trying to figure out the fastest and/or cheapest way is most important.  For fast and cheap, cash@pp is definitely in the top tier.  For most its quick to get confirmed and then after that theres no wait times or anything, so you can just buy the btc and immediately send to your external wallet.   But like most places it requires lots of personal info.   As for atms, i havent used many but most of them work by you having a mobile phone with a bitcoin wallet app installed.  When you click on "receive" in the wallet most generate a QR Code thing that is the receiving address, and you just hold up your phone so the kiosk can scan it and then insert your money.  I think most will print a paper wallet if you dont have a mobile app, and you can import the paper wallet later. 

 
low fees if you use a real exchange and put orders into the orderbook yourself. 

you have to know what you are doing, as they are all KYC'd. 

many diff options to move funds around and obfuscate the trail after withdrawal. 

(i don't wanna blow up my methods, but a little research goes a long way. I don't use traditional tumblers) 

*also helps to move funds around when tx fees are low, u can track btc tx fees using many diff sites, but usually on saturdays is cheapest

  2. O @ ochemdim: @xenxra don’t sweat it, that’s part of investing, especially crypț0. Never invest (or bet) more than you can afford to lose, that’s rule #1. Also, if someone is right most of the time like you, that’s unusual and it’s awesome you’re willing to share with us. Please keep the recommendations coming!
  3. xenxra @ xenxra: also, to that effect, i'm a bit behind on the whole C/R situation, that being said - this is the first time in 16 months that the market pulled back and C did not DM me on telegram about it.
  4. xenxra @ xenxra: i want to apologize to the people on here for my calls about the market moving up three days before the crash. the crash we had was essentially a black swan (i.e. an accident) and as is the very nature of "accidents", they usually cannot be accounted for beforehand. a LOT of people got wiped out on that move but I do think we still push for new highs across the board sooner than later as long as Bitcoin stays above $105k.
  5. O @ oh be g: And I agree w u shit happens
  6. O @ oh be g: @finger just to be clear I am not accusing any one of anything just replying to another post explaining how just like any other biz drop shipping exists
  7. Finger-of-God @ Finger-of-God: Thats why we just make sure to always have inventory and never go past the inventory. makes us have skin in the game.... that said sometimes shit happens we get hella orders and have to process 600 orders after a busy weekend and it might take us a week to catch up. so maybe thats all he is dealing with?
  8. Finger-of-God @ Finger-of-God: ooph. i hate to hear the scam word tossed around. sometimes people end up having shit happen...like making a bad move in business, doesnt mean they scammed but that they just fucked up some how.
  9. O @ oh be g: That being said, be careful. There was a period of time of new vendors who exit scam after sending “samples”. So I woould trust your gut and intuition ”
  10. O @ oh be g: @meep that’s always been the case, u will see vendors w the exact same menu. Part of the game.
  11. Kruppe @ Kruppe: Man that sucks about rocky :( I haven't been here long but man he was on point.

  13. A @ AnnaSofia: @Dr-Octagon nice to see you again sir!
  14. Dr-Octagon @ Dr-Octagon: @AnnaSofia nice to see you.
  15. DougBreyers @ DougBreyers: Just came back after a bit of absense and noticed rocky seems to have suddenly disappeared. 🤔
  16. fyjclol @ fyjclol: Nope. It's sketchy af
  17. M @ meepmoopmeep: Strange to see a crop of new vendors after the whole situation… coincidence?
  18. Ketmaster @ Ketmaster: @Yaugae5121
  19. Ketmaster @ Ketmaster: It's speculation from someone who used to be on his "team" and mod for his telegram who he talked to often
  20. R @ racingworld23: Yeah I understand so I used to go to him for Lucy or magic mushies anyone else around here got them I feel like I'm starting over as I never used anyone but that guy
