Question: For the Bitcoin payment, do you have everyone send you cash/Venmo, then YOU buy Bitcoin and pay IDGod?
Or does everyone buy their own Bitcoin and send it?

The timeline section is super helpful. Everyone always asks "when will it arrive?" and this gives realistic expectations.
Telling people 6 weeks when it's really 4-5 = genius move. They'll be happy when it arrives "early." 😄

Great question! I collect Venmo/Cashapp from everyone, then I buy Bitcoin and pay IDGod.
Why? Because:
- Most people don't know how to buy crypto
- You can use the BTC10 code as one transaction
- Easier to track and manage
Just factor in the Bitcoin fees when calculating how much to collect.

❓ FAQ
Q: What if someone drops out after I place the order?
A: That's why you collect payment FIRST. If they paid and drop out, keep their money - not your problem.
Q: What if customs seizes the package?
A: IDGod usually offers 1 free reshipment. Contact them with tracking info. (This is rare though.)
Q: Should everyone get the same state?
A: No! Mixing states is fine and actually less suspicious.
Q: Can I do a group order domestically (OISF/LostID)?
A: Yes, but discounts aren't as aggressive. Better for small groups (4-6 people).
