The one in Berlin Kreuzberg, in an "alternative" Bar looked nice. I think it's the only one in Germany atm. I don't think they have cameras. And yes. I had similar thoughts. The only local seller I came up with in my area that would sell smaller ammounts wanted to meet in person. Which is...I don't know. I have a bad feeling about that. Since I "only" want to pay an VPN with them (maybe some space also if that works out), I would probably take the mail-way you've described if it would have been aviable. I now think about paying the VPN with vouchers I can buy in a local shop somewhere but no idea if that works with vouchers I buy here in Germany.

As a local seller, I'll want to meet in person because I don't trust any method of payment that is not cash in my hand.

  I can totally understand that. Don't take me wrong. The thing is that I don't want to meet you because it may end bad for me. I don't know you. It feels like buying weed as a teenager again. I don't need that anymore ;)

    Yeah, exactly the same for me. That's why I'll ask to meet in a cafe or something.

      Tell me when you come by Frankfurt. Apfelwein is on me :)

        Haha, I'll be in Munchen after the MWC, which is probably the closest I'll get to Frankfurt :) Similarly, let me know if you're in Thessaloniki!

    And... Meeting someone in real space means they can probably pretty easily find out your identity. If I were running intelligence/LE operations, I'd make sure to place well rated agents on LocalBitcoin. Offer good prices, make a bunch of transactions to get a great rating, etc. Then I'd record all interactions, including voice and video, as well as try to obtain DNA/fingerprints ("OK is this right? Wanna do the honor of hitting enter? "). That requires very little work. For large buys, a simple tail might conclusively provide identification info.
