I feel I should speak out about this as my name is being used.
I agree it could look bad, but I joined not long ago to buy BTC. Contacted Shdvb first and never needed to use anyone else.
Never been much of an active user on any forum.
I come here for the marketplace. Im happy to help Shdvb with feedback. I see it like ebay feedback. He gets his post bumped and a +1. I get my BTC. We've built up trust together which could help me trade with others should I need to and same for him. I prefer this forum over LBC any day. So its in my interests that he does well.
As for single transactions. Yes its a privacy move with good reason now. Thought everybody did this.
Did you ever communicate with Shdvb via PM to initiate the transaction? If so would you be able to allow a trusted member (maybe tomatocage) to temporarily access your account to confirm that there are PM messages made at times similar to when you posted feedback?
