Hi Sphex
I signed up to Coinbase and used Electrum as my main wallet.
I transferred money from my bank account to my Coinbase, then exchanged from sterling into BC within Coinbase. I then transferred my BC across into my electrum wallet to use as the main adress for sending with littlebiggy providers.
If you plan to do this way don't miss out the last step, (don't send bitcoins from Coinbase itself, transfer to your personal wallet (Electrum) or else you can be banned from Coinbase), also, Coinbase takes 1.49% off the value transferred as well as a 0.10p mining fee. Its best to add £5/$5 extra to cover the charges.
Good luck, it's easier than what it sounds, you'll be up and running in no time =)

I have used Coinbase for LB for about two years now and have never had a problem. Also use https://freebitco.in/?r=39356745 to help generate some free BTC.

You don’t get banned, if that was the case I’d be long gone

I heard that coinbase has a history of banning people who are buying and then immediately transferring BTC (probably as they suspect it's for purposes like this). Is this not the case?

I use bitpanda, and I'm fairly happy with it. Easy to use, slick, although the fees are a pain (though compared to other places, the fees seem very fair)

My payments into Coinbase were limited to £50 a week, maybe due to how I using it! With C.Pay now. Have to jump through a few hoops to set up a fully featured account but pretty much unlimited coin purchasing now, so all good.

Ah, interesting to know. If C.Pay was a bit more hassle, I'd recommend BitPanda since it was as easy as coinbase to verify and was set up fully within about 20 minutes

Good stuff. If I push my luck too far with CP I’ll try them next ;-).

Not true

Mmkay, good to know it works most of the time although Roy did have his account limited. Search littlebiggy coinbase in google and a couple people have been banned too

Must be more to it I’m thinking

from my experience it’s not the case so I’m unsure what is going on but here’s a screenshot

Great advice for Shpex, i'd like to second that by mentioning not only to use your own personal wallet, but in addition to that, (imo) use a hardware wallet that is tangible (in order to process your transaction) it's very safe and untraceable at 100% as it processes a random BTC address every time you send; thereby allowing you to remain anonymous throughout. Electrum is a great middleman too, but that makes the whole process digital and unless done offline makes you vulnerable to hackers (sorry it's just a crypto fact). Invest in a hardware wallet (everyone).

Crypto fact?

Your post there has really helped me out so firstly thanks for that. I am trying to make my first purchase and I am new to this crypto stuff.

do you know any vendors that accept Monero? I am looking for a vendor that accepts monero so that it is completely anonymous.

Or is this desktop wallet way (I have the Exodus desktop wallet and I can trade coins in that) the best way to be anonymous? So my wallet address is different from my coinbase address?

For me to make purchases here I need to know its completely anonymous buying - please advise

Cheers

Read my comment above. :)

Try bitpanda, its the best

Second this! Very easy to use!

Coinbase is easy to get started with but not sure if they are still limiting transactions. It took me a good year to establish & ensure a smooth flow of bitcoin & I use 2 different sites-one to "buy from" where I store my coin (for purchases on LB) and one to purchase bitcoin. I transfer the bitcoin to my "buy from" site.

I try to keep several hundred dollars in bitcoin at my disposal because you never know when they are going to change the rules and try to block (online) purchases.

a lot if trial & error and I lost, at first, some coin. Now I make a little cash in addition to having the coin to make a purchase on LB. Best case scenario is make a buy and bitcoin makes a nice gain and you can make your purchase off your increase.

Hope this helps.

Coinbase app is probably the simplest way. What country are you in?

Hi thanks for info. Yeah I ended up using coinbase. Also followed some of the guides listed and it turned out to be pretty straight forward.

Yeah man, once you get your head around it, it's easy.
Enjoy!

Sorry to hijack post but I'm a newbie with stage 4 cancer. I'm not the most savvy when it comes to buying Bitcoin etc. Never done it before.
So I'm looking for a simple as fuck way of payment..
Once I know who to get from.
Cheers

Hi Italysora
Not sure how old is this post and I faced difficulties at the beginning also...
You have good userguides under tgt vendor or lb help page ; q&a that might be useful and if you struggle, pm me and I will help you.
Take care

the easyist way ive found is bitcoin atm's ( no trace) , set up coin acc on fone (pay & go), loads to look at; my fav is BRD. down load wallet and set up,goog search 'local bitcoin atm' most major towns have one; mines my local barber(new meaning to something for the weekend) :) feed in £'s (lots these days) THC tokens on ya fone. big smiles. keep up the fight.

forgot to say its probably the most expencive.

use bitpanda to buy bitcoin (very low fees and very easy to use)
use tails OS on a USB key (keep it updated, this is good practice to secure your electrum wallet) and use tor browser to buy on LB (fly under the radar)
use the electrum appimage (keep it updated to guard your coin) to send your bitcoin (use replace by fee option and mempool and you can set your fees low) took me ages to learn this stuff but once you know you know ;)

I use coincorner easy to use app,,,,

paxful.com - super easy and never had any issues.

This will take you to a handy guide on acquiring bitcoin through sharing
Hope this proves useful, happy shopping

Hi, do you know any vendors that accept Monero? I am looking for a vendor that accepts monero so that it is completely anonymous.
Cheers

I've had the easiest time using Paxful to buy bitcoin using Revolut as my "cash wallet" ; PayPal is a pile of shit imo

Something cake! Wedding/ice cream/london pound!! Or cookies! I love those vanilla smokes :)

ive just had ice cream cake. sold out in 3 hours

Northern lights mate or skywalker OG would be quality

I saw! It went really fast, too! I was hoping to snag 3.5-7g so didnt bother joining the race for it :D

I’d like to see some full Indica strains, Northern lights, Grandaddy Purple, Afgani, G13, Hash Plant... really want to see less hybrids on here, more old skool strains.

G13 and Northern Lights 2 of my most fave strains ever, id love to see some of them too.

Cheese.

has to be that 09 one!

i know sativas are not that big of a yield unless you veg them for a long time so id settle for some auto cheese

Trump to die of corona virus? No no no, the legalisation of weed. Oh sorry you mean which “strains” do we wanna see haha , just keep doing what you’re doing mate. Your keeping us topped up with some awesome flavours at the mo

Dr. Grinspoon, Purple Glueberry OG, Silver bubble, Citral, Classic Neville's Haze.....all amazing strains

Had Silver Bubble from Green Place loved it, never seen it anywhere else.

Grey area is the only other place I know that does it in dam

Voyagers also do a Lemon Bubble that is supposed to be very nice too.

What he said!

This man knows the score! Dr grinspoon best flower in the world everytime in dam straight to barneys for the grinspoon so please do! Also some greenhouse EL NINO that shits pure nasty the smell alone will wreck you

Grinspoon is the one for sure....I have 3 joints left..was in dam in Feb and when I got back on my doormat was 9g of Grinspoon...not sure who sent it but they are a legend! ;) The last bit tempts me everyday but holding off for the right moment!

Haha you a better man than me that would be smashed right in lol an yeah cant go dam an not do a wee sender!

Damn right but your best chance is to actually take it into the Post Office and send it from there as it goes through a easier route back to England than dropping it in a post box does costs about 8 euro err so my mate told me ;)

Haha take my own bubble envelopes :)

Me too mate and smell proof bags theyre well expensive over there.

Go with own envelopes and grand plans of sterile environment, gloves etc....end up licking an envelope as smoking a joint normally in the end...100% success still

I just had a platinum jelly that was very dr grinspoon esque.

GF

In look maybe ....but grinspoon is an insane sativa and plat jelly is indica isn't it?

Not sure if even possible anymore, but some top super skunk or northern lights would be nice for a bit of nostalgia

Yeah i’d love some good old cheese :D

Please find some nice grapefruit man!!! Cant relive that fruity goodness anywhere so j always ask! Ahhh one day maybe lol

What are diamonds in sauce? i've seen crumble and shatter but what is this Diamonds you speak of? Looks interesting

Next level!

Ohh smokey, diamonds in sauce is naughty! It’s thca crystals (which have no flavour) in a terpene sauce (with has flavour)! Thca isn’t psychoactive but converts to thc when heated so this is a concentrate which can have like 90% thc and is super tasty because of the terpenes. As I said. Naughty... :P

thc-a crystals? from the bud (the white thc crystals or?). Wow 90% sounds high indeed.

hmm right, which means the wax would be extract from the plant too? what would be the difference between that gelato wax and that black cherry sauce diamonds and which would be better for vaping? > in a atomizer attachment for a vape (mr.bald t atomizer). This seems to be the next echelon and future of extracts i guess

They can be in the high 90s sometimes mate. My fucking favourite concentrates in the planet. The diamonds give you the high, the sauce gives you the flavours

Diamonds and sauce is more artificial than the wax. I just googled to get the specifics. THCA crystals are made by getting a really pure concentrate like distillate, mixing it with a solvent and then slowly evaporating it until crystals form. Because it’s so pure you have to then mix in terpenes to give it flavour. You can buy terpenes online but i’m trying to figure out if they’re artificially synthesised or extracted from the plant. Anyway I don’t know how it would vape but when I dabbed it I would say I was about 1.5-2x as stoned as I would normally be of an equivalent sized amount of normal concentrate.

this is semi correct, semi not. the whole extraction process for any type of concentrate uses solvents whether its alcohol, or butane (other than rosin) thc is soluble to solvents and fats so they use the solvents so the thc has something to attach to when extracting. its then after purged for several days until 99.9% of the solvent has evaporated.

Any idea on the terpenes and how they’re produced separately by chance? I’d be curious to know. Edit- just seen your comment. I’ve only tried UK 420s before so it’ll be interesting to try yours when it arrives

pretty sure the terps are produced along side it. But i think they separate them then to continue the process then at the end they usually reintroduce the sauce. I'm pretty sure I'm right

youre right

have a read of this

https://www.edrosenthal.com/the-guru-of-ganja-blog/2018/8/27/diamond-mining-with-live-resin

uk420 was more like a 30% sauce 70% diamonds

mines more 90% diamond and whatever sauce its soaked up in the jar

Cool, thanks!

also my diamonds sauce is all natural terpenes from the plant, nothing added or reintroduced.

Few fastbuds ones interest me - Wedding Cake, Purple Lemonade, Orange Sherbert I think they have. Outside of that looking for Grape Ape..

Were you thinking something like this? ;-)

GF

Amazing! I've got a Purple Lemonade on the go in my conservatory, early days but looking good!

Very much like that! Hope they all bring you fire mate

When can I get some lol

greenfinger is growing some of those right now

Would love another Gelato hybrid of some sorts, if you manage to get hold of that gushers again or the jaffabone i'll be getting a half oz straight away!!

wanted to order another bit of that sapphire today but it's all gone :( need more gassy flower in my life

Gelato just been added.

GF

Grapefruit and a good cheese! Not big yielders but god darn the flavoursss

Diesel!

Bubbleberry by sagarmatha seeds,
Havent had any in nearly 20 years.

Anyone else tried recently or remember it? Showing my age now haha

Bro, I’m hopping on here cause your stuff is fire. Can you get a hold of UK Smoothie?

Anything like that jaffabone or similar would be great. Best weed I have had off of here. Top notch

Would love to see some of the Ugorg stuff?

Wedding Cake
Girl Scout Cookies
Cheese
Blue Cheese
Blues

Wouldn't mind some tangerine dream

I once got a Q of weed that was perfectly grown and cured and smelt like pepper and spice with a kind of beef meaty smell to it too. It also smoked like that too.. I never got the name of the strain and haven't had anything like that since. The word allegro rings a bell. If you ever see anything like this anyway GET IT!

I’ve also got a Royal Critical on that’s giving off a salami like smell


GF

Oo I'm interested are you going to be putting this up for sale?

I’m not sure which ones will go for sale. Some will, some will be personal.


GF

Sounds good I'll be keeping a close eye on your page for sure!

I’m always after unique flavours. Would be good if you could source some harybo. Tastes really peachy.

had the crumble of harybo this year. was really nice. its like zkittlez

I'm always after crumble/shatter. Not sure if you deal in that as I've seen you sell live resin/wax but I need something a little more stable as I use a vape and not a proper dab rig.

will have some import rosin landing soon. Trilogy 710 stuff. ive had a few crumbles, dont really do shatter as its a bit out dated now. will keep an eye out though

Your cali packs are always welcome, would love more of that also.

Shout me as soon as the import lands bro

Am I right in saying rosin is quite 'gloopy'? I don't have any experience with the stuff. I'd probably lose to much when transferring for it to be viable with a concentrate vape. Thanks anyway.

depends what heat its pressed at and how many tonnes, whether its dry or fresh plant matter, etc. you can get dry rosin, quite similar to crumble consistency.

Rosin sounds good!
How about distilate, vape carts, tinctures and oils?
Big demand for medical and recreation use.

Some quality GG4 or some nice Kush would be cool to see. A personal favourite of mine is L.A Confidential but I haven't seen that in the wild for years. Keep up the good work bud!
