Just an observation: if you were an investigator trying to ensnare somebody, your entire post would still be arguably "true."  I'm not saying you really are, I just find it an amusing coincidence :)

Ha, I guess it does sound bad, but it is just me. I suck at words(math guy) and am a little pissed at the extortion on the transfer rates....please do not confuse my frustration with being in anyway related to the ones that have caused this whole fucked up process for us to have to endure.
I just want to do a fair trade, nothing more, nothing less.
Come to think of it, BTC trade is still legal? Yes?

Oh, absolutely, but let's take me for example.  Now if I were to say "sure, fuck it, why not -- quick $35-50," you'd be able to track me to whatever account I ended up depositing that moneypak into.  I'm not sure if that's always possible, or only because I'm a total noob with respect to how people accept moneypaks and still stay away from attention on SR, but either way: if you were fishing for a promotion or something and I wanted a quick $50, you wouldn't end up going home empty handed.

Would it work?  Eh... maybe, maybe not.  Probably not, and chances are anybody you actually found wouldn't be too interesting.  But they'd lose nothing except 5 minutes giving it a try, and maybe somebody who admits to a bunch of stuff here on the forums will answer.  Anything's possible, right.

If you are in America then buying bitcoins is easier than anywhere else on the planet.

Why not use ordinary money to buy bitcoins? 99% of moneypak for bitcoin transactions here are fraudulent.

Damn you are paranoid, and no, the mp is not traceable to your account. If you can help out then great! If not, then why do you respond? I am not le nor am I phishing, but hey, thanks for responding anyhow.

The thought of going in a bank to do the transfer is not an option for me. I do not use banks for any service.  Have been on SR for over a year and have had a dozen trades with excellent success. And I have seen some get burned, I trust my gut. The money pack helps to keep anonymity and all I have for money is cash. 

I guess your right, the scammers are starting to outweigh the legit up here......I will just pay the % and quit bitching, escrow is the best option. 
Gotta pay to play  ;)  just venting is all.
