Title: Localbitcoins My new Alternative.
Post by: Rehab4455 on July 09, 2013, 05:46 pm
I just want to clarify some things.
There's no one around my area to meet face to face.

So I want to pay using other means, but who should I trust? Over how many reviews or what ever.
Also, how is the buyer and seller both protected? Like what if I send him the money pak or what ever. What stops the seller from saying it's fake or what ever you know what I'm saying

Localbitcoins has an escrow facility and a dispute resolution process. A bit like here.

Money Pak you go to walmart pick up the card, Put how ever much money on it. Send them the code.
