    Do you know why are they paying above market? You can make easy profit if they really pay what they are adversiting. Sounds weird

    Same trader sell price changed to $339.41
    Coinbase buy price is : 249.96

    If you buy 2k worth BTC from Coinbase it will equal around 8.001. Sell to above trader $2715. There is $715 trade profit on this. It sounds very fishy.

    My first point is People can buy from Coinbase and sell it to traders if they pay above market. There is a big difference. I may be wrong because I do not know too much about BTC.

    gwills - Thanks for the compliment but I'm as confused as the rest as to why someone wants to buy at an above market price.

    With Paypal, the fee has to be discussed. For low amounts, some guys will transfer as friends.

    This doesn't happen now, but at one time the prices were off a substantial amount at different exchanges leading to arbs.

    Have you ever tried buying on Coinbase and selling on LBC ? It looks like profitable. The trader pays you $340 and you can buy $246 on Coinbase. I am trying to figure out correct me if i am wrong. Thanks i asked too much questions raiders

    I sell a lot of coins above market price by accepting PayPal with 100% trusted traders but not by other methods. As stated before, no problems at all with questions.

    When using LBC, the bitcoins are held in an escrow account when you place a sell order. After you get paid, then you click that you've been paid and the bitcoins are released to the buyer.

    If you aren't paid within the listed time period of the sell order, the transaction is canceled and the bitcoins are returned to your account.

    Only thing that I did not figure out, why not these traders buy BTC on Coinbase. It is market price. Why do they pay $350 for 1 BTC. I can buy from Coinbase then sell to the these traders it shouldn't be that much easy. There is something missing

    Can't open an account @ Coinbase? No qualifying checking account? Couple of reasons I can think of.

    Raiders - what is most above market you've ever sold on LBC? It sounds like if we sell to 100% feedback we're good.

    When people want cash quickly they will offer above market trades. If you hit a big parlay @nitrogen you probably want to cash it asap , so u offer the best deal

    Just like Ebay and everywhere else, scammers are everywhere. Good buyers with good ratings don't pay much more than the market price.

    Also, sellers that ask for higher price than the market, usually take Amazon gift card(or other gift cards) as payment.

    Cashed out from my book as well. I don't use a BTC only book, but even still - 8 hours to my personal wallet. After that the whole LBC thing took about 30 min and straight to my Paypal account. TOTALLY AWESOME AND EASY and really no fees. How anyone does not use BTC for deposits and especially withdrawals is beyond me.

    Not sure about Cloudbet but Nitrogen is at 4 BTC right now and will most likely be at 20 BTC closer to tip-off. They will also have live betting for the game.

    I would like to buy btc thru localbitcoins but many of the sellers are asking for government id. I don't want to share my id with someone that i don't know. Do you guys give id to sellers or buyers ? I don't have feedback and it is really hard for me to buy/sell thru localbitcoins.. Any comments ?

    Isn't that the truth Money. -108 on full game lines, but bogus multiway alternative lines that disguises huge juice and misleading player props that look like they're two ways but are not and are like roulette wheels with 5 zeros and above twenty cent lines on quarters and halves. Overtime props are -5000 / +1200.

    I want to love these guys and do play there but I'm about done with them. It looks more like they're trolling for super-squares than trying to build a bookmaking business.

    Have to agree regarding Nitrogen, less enamored with them. Tonight's Mtl./TB game for eg. Team to score 1st goal: Mtl. -147 TB -141 No 1st goal +2641
