I use the same person only once cuz I shoot em after the deal for opsec reasons. This method also saves my cash.

Dude just do a cash deposit at a credit union. Much safer imo. There are stories all the time of people getting robbed while going to trade for BitCoin. The bank doesn't even ask to see your ID.

If you find someone you trust, I don't see a problem with using them repeatedly or exclusively.

Get a burner phone that you only use to contact them and remove the battery when not in use if you're worried. If you're super paranoid make sure not to leave any fingerprints on the cash and take public transportation to and from the meeting and do a surveillance detection route before heading home. That's almost surely overkill though.

Obviously don't mention dnm, a legit lbc trader will not do business with you if you mention anything illegal. If they mention anything illegal, I would run away.

Edit: you'd probably want to tumble the coins or at least not move them directly to a market in case the lbc trader is nosey.
