you mean like buying from another member on here using localbitcoinsas a safe medium? dunno, im only a humble newbie.
tbh i wouldnt trade with many on here regardless, theyre all over paranoid and love branding any and all newbies as scammers even when they are not. its kind of like trying to deal with those brainwashed born agains.. it doesnt matter what you say or what proof you show them theyre oblivious and blind to the facts. also there has been instances of users with good trust ratings jumping the fence or just earning the trust in order to pull a big scam so basically dont trust anyone here and if you are dealing with someone here make sure its through a safe medium such as a reputable escrow and make sure your totally happy with the arrangement beforehand, leave no outs for them to potentially scam you.
hell theres even speculation surrounding a large amount of BTC donations to the site owner towards a new forum that has never happend so id be weary of anyone and everyone.
