Title: "BTC4UKASH" new vendor
Post by: omnium on June 11, 2012, 06:35 pm
new vendor "btc4ukash" appeared, offering ukash exchange to bitcoin.
i just placed a test order. he created his account 6h ago, the order was placed 1.5h ago with codes sent.

Well I will be interested to see how it goes, I think 8% is a bit steep though considering I've been using vendors recently with rates of 7% and 6%. Also I believe allowing buyers to trade smaller codes would be better until he builds up a good rep.

However it would indeed be nice to see a reliable ukash vendor on here so fingers crossed.

Good to hear for me too, however i will wait for some others good reviews.. safety first..
I take a look in his page and is written "is unranked with 0% positive feedback from 0 transactions" this sound a bit strange for me..

Exactly what I was thinking. I'm really interested in a reliable trader for this matter, but nearly 0 reputation and demanding to exchange at least 80EU is imho a bit too much. Allow smaller values to begin with, people will see that everything looks and works legit and after building some base rep I see no problem raising this minimum value again.

I've used BTC4UKASH once before and the turnaround time was pretty good, less than 24hrs.

For the second occasion I'm starting to get a little concerned. I placed an order last Thursday and my order has still not been fulfilled. I've sent numerous (reasonable) messages but have heard nothing back. I'm hoping for resolution today and will give this vendor the benefit of the doubt as his feedback is excellent and he's delivered for me before

I will update this post with news, hopefully positive!

Ok, it's looking like I've been scammed. His page now has no active listings

Will move this to the Scams thread. Hopefully this will prevent future fleecing. Angry!

 >:(   I didn't see this thread and if I had seen it I wouldn't have sent my €100 to him two days ago!! he's not responding to me now either, very pissed off if I've been ripped off 'cos the other transaction I made with him went very smoothly! not happy with this at all, can't afford to be throwing away €100 at all.  :o >:(

Turns out the guy is still legit, got my bitcoins there.  He said he was gone away for a few days.  Although it would have been helpful and more clear, if he said on his profile or even in a message to me and other people that he would be gone away for a few days and would process my order soon.  anyways, all's well that ends well.
