I'd throw out the name of the guy in your area that has done many high price transactions with me in person...but I can't seem to reach him ... to get permission.
I'm pretty sure I know who you are talking about. If I'm right, then I've had several transactions with him myself. If you do get in contact with him and it's who I think it is, then you can ask him about me. He'll know me by my bitcointalk ID.
Lol well he is really big on the encryption messaging stuff, so its hard sometimes to get ahold of him. I will tell him your name, I will try getting him to come on too...think you all might be a bit shocked to find out just how many coins I have had and just how much cold hard cash he has got from me...well him and some others had to put their coins together when I was buying. Anyways yea I will let him know your id on here, I really really trust him given all the transactions I have done with him and transactions he has mediated in person with me.
