What's the status of devices that were distributed by the city in April for students to learn remotely? If it's not being used anymore can I keep it? Can I give it to someone else?

What does the city have to say about it...?

I'm curious what the peak was to date for the gold V75. What was the highest first-hand confirmed non-ebay sale you know of at any point?

is there any reason to wait on PPP loan forgiveness or should you do it as soon as possible now that places, at least Kabbage has opened up the forgiveness application ?

Same q. For a straightforward sole prop claiming full forgiveness for self, any reason to wait at this point?

Pretty incredible that so many folks here got so many of the V75 coins given that there were 390,000 users attempting to access the website at that time...

Something like that, though not sure a 3BM a hog makes.

Lol I assumed you were being modest, and that 3BM really meant 15BM.

I tried to get 3 golds via 3BM. Tofasta meruba strikes again as I think if I focused on one or 2 I could have gotten it.

How are people here paying/getting paid for the gold? Other than cash for coin in-person exchange, what are people doing?

If you object to this post being in this topic i’ll move it.

In-person exchange, PayPal on the spot.

General Discussion / Best and safest way to buy/sell on DDF

« on: November 10, 2020, 05:15:21 PM »

When transactions occur between people on an anonomous online forum like DDF where members may not know each other (or even if they do...), things can go wrong. Retracted e-payments after receiving the item, bounced/cancelled checks, not sending the item, etc.

Beyond getting references or having people vouch for each other - regarding method of payment, what are some of the ways you protect yourself when engaging in this type of transaction? An in-person transfer of goods with a cash payment sounds like the safest option, but isn't always practical. There's Paypal, Zelle, QP, check, lots of different options. Thoughts?
