So now we have won the Netcoins contest I thought I would have a quick look and see where the closest retailer is. I input my address and bingo up pops Greece lol.
ΧΑΝΤΖΑΚΗΣ ΚΩΝΣΤΑΝΤΙΝΟΣ
ΕΛΕΥΘΕΡΙΟΥ ΒΕΝΙΖΕΛΟΥ 176 ΜΑΛΛΙΑ, ΚΡΗΤΗ 70007 Greece
11,190 km approximately 7 days 23 hours
Get Directions
That is not convenient for me and I was a little disappointed to say the least. It involves a 14 hour flight or the funny bit is it gives me a map and directions. 196 hours by car from South Africa on the N1 highway right up through Africa. The route they send you is a little dodgy to say the least and it would be challenging. I noticed a few hot spots along the way including a very fast drive through Syria.
There are 3 ways you can purchase Steem on Netcoins.
Find a retail outlet and pay with cash or card. You will be given a flexi pin which you will use to redeem your Steem off the Gonetcoins website.
The second way is to purchase from any of their ATM sites. I see most of those are in Canada.
The third way is to use the order desk online and that is for trades over $1000 only.
I was hoping that I would have some sort of retailer close by that I could just top up with Steem without using an exchange to power up on a regular basis. I was wandering if any of you have had a look if you have a retail outlet or ATM near you? Would be great if at least some of us can benefit from this service.
