Hey guys. I know I'm new here. I registered for the sole purpose of buying BTC.
I know that I'm new here, so I am not at all trustworthy.
Is there anything I can do to prove to a potential seller that I am trustworthy?
I am using my own personal verified PayPal account. I can send as F&F, and even write a note that I will never charge back if that helps.
I will of course go first.
you might consider cashing out from paypal to your bank account. people are more likely to accept a bank transfer than paypal from a new user IMO.
i've seen people make trades where paypal funds were sent immediately and BTC released months later, after the threat of chargeback seemed to be over.
personally, i'm pretty paranoid accepting paypal funds---i'm not even sure green trust is enough. even honorable traders might mistakenly end up trading with fraudulent funds and that can cause negative balances or account closure.
