Hey bud check out my rep thread, another $1000 transaction done on IRC (channel bitcoin-OTC) couple days ago where the buyer sent first. $300 increments. Thanks now get out.

Also to anyone reading this thread, I still have 4 BTC set aside for these challenges. So far only 1 challenge for 1 BTC is currently on. I am fine with using escrow with JohnK, we both pay 1% extra to the escrow address to cover his 2% fee. Let me know if you're interested!
