And if so, how much would you charge for the transaction?

Are you looking to buy into UB ? If so i am willing to accept a paypal payment into my bank account in return for me transfering some money into your UB account.

I wont charge for this but will insist on payment to my paypal account before transfering any money into your UB account.

The other thing i am afraid i must insisit on is that you buy in for at least $200 as that is the minimum i am looking to cash out, but if you only want to play with less you can cash out the money i put in straight away to you paypal account

If you wanna do it drop me a line here i am sure some of the other regulars will vouch for me ! ( well maybe :-)

Cheers

Hey Chase,

I would do BidPay (western union) rather than paypal. I'm sure Eihli is an upstanding citizen. However, in case he isn't, you can get burned by paypal if the card ends up being stolen. Also, he could try to do a chargeback on the card which would leave you high and dry without your 2 bills.

If you use BidPay, the money is yours once the charge clears. They will send you a check in the mail and the funds are irreversible.

Just looking out for ya.

I'm going to vouche for both of you here and say.....I'm sorry guys, this is not something you should be doing over the internet. You don't know each other, and even though the request is probably with all good intentions.......and the offer by you Chase is very nice indeed........I really don't think it's in best interest for either one of you to get caught up in.

Just think about it hard before you make what could be.....a bad decision.

Sorry I'm the one of gloom and doom, but that's how I see it. No offense to anyone.............

I am well aware of the problems with online trust. I've gotten experience from a few mmorpg's that I use to play. I have already made one of these transfers with a guy named hubt on UB, so if you know him and trust what he says you can ask him about my reliability. I can also give you my phone number if you want to talk to me so you know I'm not some anonymous prick.

Hey Eihli,

You are obviously mistaken here. All I was saying is that I didn't think it was a good idea for EITHER one of you. You don't need to tell me what type of person you are or are "not" either......because that's not the point. Neither one of you know each other and that IS the point. And what would calling you on the phone prove?....... All that would clarify is that you exist and nothing more, so please......this is just a matter of "common sense" here.

But whatever decisions are made between you and whoever wants to help you are most definitely up to you, but I am allowed to voice my opinion. I've gotten burned plenty of times from helping people out when it came to "money issues" in the poker rooms.......and I really don't think that anything positive can come of it, unless you *really* trust the person. I've already learned my lesson and that is why I am so against it.

But I already stated that my opinion was NO offense to anyone so why are you getting defensive? If Chase or anybody wants to help you, they will...*regardless* of what my opinions on the matter are.

BTW, you may not be a prick, (and I'm sure that you're not), but you ARE anonymous here. (we all are for that matter).

That's the last I'm going to say about this, and if you don't quite understand where I'm coming from than I'm sorry. Good Luck on your search.

I didn't mean for that post to seem defensive nor did I mean for it to seem directed towards you. I understand what you are saying and appreciate your warning.

Hey people not to worry because i have cashed out today already, sorry mate but i found out that as i live in the UK i need them to send me a cheque and doing that would have cost me more if the cheque was for less than a certain amount . Apologies for getting your hopes up i am sure there are lots of ways for you to pay into UB in the US unfortunately i am probably not the person to ask :-)

Cheers
