Hi everyone,
Can I first just say I feel that the spare bitcoins thread is not the best place for such a question, simply because of the spamming of new accounts with little posts trying to get free drugs, so I am sorry If you wanted me to post it in that thread but I feel that it is redundant due to the amount of scammers on there.
I really don't like doing this but I have recently started using a new bitcoin service (VirWoX), who's fees have screwed me over more than I had anticipated. Even after the fees I was fine for the amount I needed however the rates had changed so I am a little short on a 1.35 btc order. :/
It seems to me that there is a large amount of, lets say 'scammers', and people constantly asking for fairly high amounts and I understand that many of them, are slow to be trusted, however; personally I feel that I have been a regular member and contributor to this forum for a decent amount of time, and have also given out several, although small, bitcoin loans in the past to people. (However I fail to remember who they were, as this was several months ago).
I hope you understand, that this is something that I don't enjoy asking, buy I have no options left as VirWoX isn't an option anymore. I understand this is a fair amount for a loan to an anonymous member of a forum, but I am short of 0.143 bitcoins, purely from VirWoX's fees. I, as I hope to believe, am a fairly well enough established member of the forum, I hope that someone would be able to do such a thing for me.
I am next getting bitcoins around 2btc's on Friday (depending on the rates) from localbitcoins, and would be happy to give back 0.25 bitcoins for someone who is willing to do such a thing. I hope you can understand that this is not some scam or attempt to get free bitcoins, but I had not intended for the virwox fees to screw me over so badly. :/
Thank you to anyone who can help, my silkroad name is 'lockerp', and as I said If things go to plan I am able to repay you .25btc on Friday.
I know that I have wrote a lot for just this but I thought if i was going to ask for such a thing I would make the effort to explain myself, and I hope you can trust and help me out with this one.

Anyone?
I understand it's hard to be trusted, but I can guarantee a +75% return of .25btc if you can do this for me. As it is a sunday, it would be best if I could place my order today, so if anybody could help they would help me out a lot.
Thank you,
Locker.

Not a chance
Due to?
Is it because of the amount I'm asking for? (Which is due to VirWoX), or that you are unable to trust me? I have already said that I would be able to give .25btc on Friday when I next get my bitcoins for my big order of LSD, Ketamine and Weed, and would have at least .5btc for paying back this loan. (even though I would repay before spending any of it).

Hey man,
If I were you I would stop using virwox, its a complete rip off.
Start using https://localbitcoins.com/
You can buy bitcoins there online, no need to meet anyone. You can use bank transfers and other methods of payment. The price/BTC is also good.

Yes, the fees are absolutely pathetic, I was hoping to get some weed and try out some LSD, but I expected just the single 3.5% fees. On friday when I get some money I will be trying out LocalBitcoins to try again.
Like i said, If anyone would be able to help me I would be able to give you .25btc, I really don't want to wait till friday (or likely later because of the weekend), to order. :/
Thanks,
Locker.
