If the other person is off the grid???

I normally send westU, Money G or drop cash next day mail? Anything easier? Anyone use bitcoin atms? Most that I've seen are to buy only, not cash out? TIA?

[lakerboy]

Where?

[Mac4Lyfe]

Texas to Cali.

[Clutchut12]

Just do money g,its like 5 bucks

[bhoor]

Why not **?

[bhoor]

Why not western U?

[Mac4Lyfe]

money G and WestU is like $50 and I have to actually go to a location.

Thought there might be an easier way now a days.

They charge $50?

[cincinnatikid513]

[Mac4Lyfe]

Yep... Cheaper to next day cash in the mail

[bhoor]

That's crazy. I just sent money via western u for international money transfer, they charged only $10 here in Canada. $50 charge is ripoff.

[Clutchut12]

If they charge 50 then its went up 40 to 45 bucks from just 2 years ago when i used to send shit to costa rica all the time

How off the grid are they?

Are all online methods off the table? Venmo, Paypal, BTC, etc

I always get a bit hesitant sending cash in the mail, too many variables at play if it comes up missing. But I've done it many times. That's certainly your cheapest option and probably the one that the receiver prefers the most

You buying drugs online?

No drugs. Sending money to a broke cousin. He has internet and a mobile phone but he's one of those conspiracy guys that don't like giving out his ID. I think he has to have an account to receive venmo and paypal? If I sent him BTC, how would he cash it?

[Itsamazing777]

Western union u can do online. Let him go get it

[gauchojake]

bitcoin atm will work but the fees are pretty steep

just send him btc and he can take his phone, scan the qr, and w/d the cash

[Mac4Lyfe]

yeah, that seems like the only option. You'd think there'd be other outlets with so many digital currencies.

Probably best to send him a reloadable debit card for the next time he comes begging.

Ya, he would have to link his Venmo or Paypal to his bank account which sounds like is out of the question.

BTC is same way, he'd have to link Coinbase or Gemini to his bank account and transfer money (or ATM as Jaker said but fees are high)
If I did cash, I'd feel most comfortable sending overnight and certified but with certified he'd have to show his ID. I bought some Oxys from a guy once and he only took cash in mail and I accidentally sent it certified, he was fukking pissed Granted your situation is different but it's still one more step

You could always just put $500 in a really small box, wrap the shit out of it so it won't "accidentally" open in transit and just over night it, won't be that much

[Mac4Lyfe]

But he'd need a bitcoin ATM near him? I did a quick search and the ones near him were to buy BTC only. I didn't see any that you could withdraw cash, unless I was looking at it wrong?

From what I saw, the fees were like 8%, which is cheaper than westU but probably harder for him to figure out.

I've overnighted $20k in the mail before and it showed up. Hell, I use to send hundreds in normal letter, wrapped in card stock. Peeps don't fukk with the US mail because of the feds.

check bitcoin atm radar
select the crypto to fiat option on the map
it will show you if you can sell btc for cash. some pawn shops take it as well

where in CA? Big cities have a ton of them.

I can't tell you how many packages and envelopes I've had opened and had to be delivered to me as "damaged" or "inadvertently opened". Certainly over 5.

Funniest one was some Fioricet I ordered years ago, it was clear the package got left out in the rain and was just falling apart. There was probably less than 30% of the original packaging left, just a bunch of clear tape holding a bottle of 180 Fioricet. The mail man delivered it and said "here's your drugs"

I was embarrassed but ended up getting along with him really well as he delivered to us for many years. We always got him stuff for Xmas and even his b-day.

With everything I've said, I send cash/gold coins in the mail regularly to my brother in Dallas and have never had issues with them, granted never sent anything more than a few k

I used to send myself large amounts of money all over the place when I couldn't have it with me on flights. Always used ups overnight. Never any problems.

This dude ain't got PayPal? Wtf?? Even I got that shit!!

[Mac4Lyfe]

He doesn't need it until Monday. I just hate paying the juice, which I think is higher from home versus going into the store. Just seems like there should be better options in this day of crypto.

best option is going to be sending him a reloadable debit card. He comes around 2 or 3 times a year, so might as well be prepared.

They say that money is all relative... The more money you have the more relatives you have.

Wow, I've sent cash regular mail at least a hundred times and never had it lost or opened, thankfully. I've sent UPS and Fedex very large sums and never a problem. That's much better than sending large sums via westu or moneyg. I knew a drug guy that got busted by the feds for sending large sums to his mom using those 2.

[lonegambler23]

just do venmo very simple

[Mac4Lyfe]

LG - the last place you'll ever see me is in jail.

[Mac4Lyfe]

Not so simple. You have to setup an account, then verify it, then add an account, then they add small amounts to your account that you have to verify. The small amounts can take several days to show on your account. He doesn't have a checking or savings account.
