As we can see from your thread above, this is the second time in 6 days that you've come to the forums looking for someone to give you some of their own Bitcoin to help you out with an order. Buy more Bitcoin than you're going to need for your order like everybody else does. If people keep bailing you out you'll have no incentive to buy enough to cover your orders.

Yes, I had a similar problem a few days ago. Although I never took any coins from anybody even though I got offered, because the rise in value of bit coin went up. I suppose I can just wait, I'm sure it will go up again but it might go down and I don't really feel like buying more bit coins when all I really need is 0.1 bitcoin ya know? lol

And I did have enough money for my purchase.... SO MUCH in fact, that I had some left over... but i'm literally 10 cents short of this second purchase that I want to spend my money on.

But thanks for making everyone think I'm probably trying to scam them, I'm sure everyone is looking forward to helping me now. :)

ALSO, i guess I only need 10 cents... I'm not sure in bit coins how much that is lol... but it's chump change, like I'm really gonna try and steal 10 cents..

You're going to need more Bitcoin for the order after the next one you make which means that it would make sense to buy more Bitcoin to cover the 0.1 BTC that you need.

If you had enough for your purchase and after making your purchase had some left over, then why were you asking for someone to give you BTC in the first instance?

But thanks for making everyone think I'm probably trying to scam them, I'm sure everyone is looking forward to helping me now. :)

I haven't made anyone think anything, I simply pointed out that this is the second time in 6 days that you've been short for an order. People will make their own decisions based on the information presented to them.
The first time obviously didn't teach you that you always need to buy more Bitcoin than you'll need for your order to cover yourself for Bitcoin fluctuations or other unexpected events.

0.1 BTC is currently $1.09 USD. To cover your order you need 0.0010 BTC. Regardless of the fact that it's 'chump change', you're asking for someone else's chump change to cover your order.

I need 10 cents... not $1.09.

And I did not come up short on an order........ I bought about 5 more bitcoins than i needed for my purchase. I was left without about 5 additional bitcoins and figured i'd spend them on something else. I found the PERFECT item and came up 10 cents short... so naturally I'm here.

Lick balls dude. We all need to purchase enough BTC and then some, to cover our own purchases. This means YOU TOO. If not, then GTFO... lol

I was being obnoxious, hence the LOL at the end, but also telling it like it is. Brutally honest people are nice people too, just honest and sometimes that hurts.

Truth? What truth? The truth is I had some left over money after a purchase, I found an item i really wanted and was only 10 cents short of being able to get it. So I came onto these forums and kindly asked for assistance. Then I get told to lick balls and all this other sandbagging.
That's the only truth I see.

 I understand people are skeptical of scams and what not, but it's none of your business who decides to help me and who doesn't.

Exactly. You asked for 0.1 BTC though, which is $1.09. You need 0.001 BTC, not 0.1.

You came up short for your previous order, as stated in your thread here:
http://dkn255hz262ypmii.onion/index.php?topic=40613.msg447659#msg447659

If you were not short, then why were you asking in the forum for 30 cents to make a purchase? You stated there that you were short, yet you state here that you had 5 Bitcoin left after making the purchase.

Now you're using those 5 Bitcoin (which you had left over from your previous purchase) to make another purchase, but are finding yourself a little short once again. You could not have had 5 Bitcoin left over from the previous purchase if you were short 30 cent for the order. It's literally impossible.

That was a few days ago. I spent all my bit coin on that same day (i made the purchase right when the value of bitcoin got high enough lol).. and i just got a MP yesterday and ordered some coins today.

And i apologize for asking for 0.1 bitcoin... I was ten cents short and thought .1 bitcoin was about 10 cents. My mistake.
