God, some people are just beyond belief. Can't some people read that crystal clear sticky on top of the forum that clearly clearly clearly says "PAYPAL AND BITCOINS DO NOT MIX"? Or is it glaucoma or cataract or some kind of eye disease epidemic that's pervading people in Germany? Paypal and bitcoins do not mix. Paypal and bitcoins do not mix. Paypal and bitcoins do not mix. There. 3 times in a row. Still can't see this?

Or are you in denial mode? Something like "oh ja ja ja, I see that paypal warning, ABER ICH IGNORIERE SIE GANZ EINFACH, which means if I ignore it and I pretend to have not seen it, then it follows that it doesn't exist!".

Unglaublich. And the amount required. The nerve and shamelessness of asking people to take risks.

This thread is so beautiful. I'm almost in tears. The comments all vouch for your integrity and credibility.

Just wondering though as to why all those who posted are newbies. Coincidence? Or a well-coordinated reference letter?

There is one very obvious major problem with that thread you quoted--- all those who posted "great deal... smooth deal... A+++ trader... awesome guy... amazing dude... etc etc etc" are newbies. That's the Mt Everest of red flags. And the red flag is raised so high you can see it from Antarctica!

Wow, I can literally smell, not just read, the letters F-R-A-U-D in all the stories here. Most want offsite trading. Skype, yahoo IM email etc etc. Away from the eyes of those who might spot the telltale signs and raise the alarm.

Mention "escrow". They'll be gone like a smoked out beehive.

Avoid PreyPal, everyone. PayPal has predatory features so they should change their name to PreyPal.

They always promise. Always.

I struggle to understand why you (and others out there) can't accept and grasp the fact that PayPal and Bitcoins was, is and will never be compatible. They don't mix, just like oil and water. You can stir and stir and stir and they will never mix.

I also do not understand why people come to this forum and ignore (deliberately or blindly) that sticky up there that crystal clearly says BEWARE of PayPal. It's like hey it's there but hey again I'm not looking at it so I guess I never saw it which means it isn't there.

Why can't you offer other payment methods that puts the seller in a safe position? Why is that not possible? There's cash. There's bank deposit. There's moneygram. There's western union. And lots of other non-reversible options out there.

"I promise not to reverse"... so you recognize that it is reversible and yet press on with this payment method.

Sold. (got my coins).

Anyone?

Just want a straightforward and simple transaction. I pay, you get payment, I get my coins. End of story.

Have vanilla reload $105.
Want BTC.

I'm a newbie so I will go first with resident trusted members here. Otherwise I will use escrow only. No ifs, no buts, no strange out-of-site trade request. Safe trading only.

Prefer escrow. I have the pics of the Vanilla's front and back and the receipt showing I paid cash for it. Will provide this to the escrow man.
