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 you were thinking of the right person. He stopped by and updated my feedback as well. If you have had successful transactions with him then I for see us doing business from time to time as well. Although now that I have tracked him back down, I will probably continue business with him as well. I have more accts with more bitcoins so I have wrote your name down so I don't forget it in case I need to sell some quickly. Do you also sell them too or just buy. I have done both for quite some time along with mining, can be very lucrative.
