Need Warm Fuzzies PLS!

[MakeNoPeaceWithEvil]

Alright, I am fixing to place an order for myself and a friend using crypto for the first time. Its $1300 and I was hoping to get some warm and fuzzies from the folks here who have used ERP - Harper before pulling the trigger. I joined TG from the info in the vendor forum here.

ERP has been great for me. I just use the website

I can't comment on the vendor, and I hope you've read and re-read crypto threads and guides.

But some random highlights:

• Understand time difference re China, and weekends.
• Pay with a stablecoin
• Learn from vendor which coin/network is accepted/preferred and pay with that specific combo of coin on network
• Allow lots of time for holds when you onramp, and let vendor know
• Only pay vendor from your self-custodial wallet, not directly from a big well-marketed crypto platform
• Initially send only a dollar or two to vendor, copy/paste the transaction number to vendor and ask for explicit confirmation before sending the balance. And again copy/paste that confirmation number to vendor

If you haven't read up on crypto, navigate to forum structure table of contents via the main big banner, and use search if you have unanswered questions

Good luck! Since this is your first time, ask the vendor if you can send a test payment ($5-10) just to make sure it goes through before sending the big sum. They are used to that, so it’s not a big ask or inconvenient for them.

Never ordered from ERP, but I’ve heard a lot of good things and have been lurking on their TG and checking out 3P COAs which seem strong. All the best!

I used the website recently and it was easier than going through a person. The crypto sending instructions at the end are pretty good. It will make it easier than trying to do it with a person.

$1300 is a sizeable order...Are you doing that much for a discounted price, or just want to do a big order?....Breaking it up into 2-3 chunks wouldn't be the worst idea to spread risk...GL

This. Consider spreading the risk?

I've ordered from ERP a few times. Once was for a 7k+ group buy. Hardest part is sending BTC to an address your first time.

 

[ladyj779]

Choose a stable coin. My first order I used Bitcoin which was of course changing the whole time 😂😵

 

[Stace_wow]

Good luck! My largest order was $600....That's all I am willing to lose in one go, but after a quick search on them, seems recent transactions have been positive so YAY!

I have never used Harper but my primary vendor is ERP, I use my girl Emmy. Every order I have made has been smooth sailing.

So much this!

I've already got 200 in usdt solana in exodus with the rest on the way from the kraken 7day hold. I parked everything in USDT and $20 in Solana. Will that be enough 'gas' for a $1300 transfer?

Same. I've used Emmy web page for a couple orders. Everything went smoothly. I wouldn't say Emmy is my Best Friend Forever, but ERP is a good vendor currently. I've only used USA based shipping though.

A couple pointers with ERP:
Double check what warehouse(s) you are ordering from. The shipping charges are per warehouse, not per order.
Double and triple check that the address you send to is for the correct coin and network before you send.
You should get payment received confirmation within just a few minutes. Refresh the order status.
I was provided tracking numbers that worked within 2 days of ordering. I've done a couple orders with ERP.

I'd also consider dividing the order in two. That sized order will qualify for free shipping twice.

$20 in Solana should last you the rest of your life.... 😎

USDT/Bustcoin/ Solana...shlemiel shmozzle.

I've ordered from ERP three times and never touched Crypto - they take AliPay.
