you obviously don't trade here, plenty of physical traders here spend 10's of K with each other regularly. shit I've done deals worth $100K plus multiple times without escrow - you trust who you know, hence why buying a rep is such a bad thing

This. I've known many of the physical bitcoin collectors for years. I even trust some of them with my priv keys.

I would trust TMAN with $100k because he sounds like a nice guy and it'd be impossible for someone to impersonate him Grin

I find it awesome that you guys got so many trusted people here to deal with. May be one day I will also able to say the same.

Sounds like a chicken-and-egg problem. In order to deal with someone you have to trust them, at least a little bit. I would probably trust most non-batshit users of this forum with $10 but even at that level I'd still do some basic due diligence to ensure that the user I'm dealing with is who they appear to be.

Once you get red tagged, I think your economic perspective in this forum is almost over.
I guess for amount like $10, I can trust this user without an escrow but I am not willing trade with this guy even if escrow is offered.

Accounts here are worth exactly 0 BTC.

Even they are worth zero in your eyes but market is willing to pay the price.

you should have no expectation otherwise. Your account could be deleted/banned tomorrow for absolutely no reason, without any sort of recourse.

That is true but probability of theymos doing so is very low or almost zero.(banning user without any reasons.)
