I was planning on doing a trade through YouTube. I was interested in either a g4 1858 flying eagle cent or a vg8 1856 half dime. My question is if any of you guys have done trades through YouTube. Even though I have the redbook in front of me, I wanted your guys' opinion on the values. I'm not even sure whether or not I will do the trade because I am skeptical to give my address out. I really wouldn't have much to offer him though besides junk silver.

I sent my side of a trade out but haven't received the coin I traded for yet :/ apparently the person I traded withs parents only let's him send out his coins after the other person sends theirs for the first time trading with them so he's had the ones I sen for awhile, i think he sent mine out Tuesday so I'm hoping to get it. :/

I guess I was nervous that I would send him silver considering I don't know them personally. I told him it would be a no for the trade. It just doesn't feel right to give my address to a stranger.

Why not try trading on Craigslist first? No mailing involved.. Of course you would either need to give out your address or meet the person but it sounds like much less hassle than trying to trade off YouTube, something I've never heard of until this thread.

Well I felt this other youtuber was just too new and hasn't made a good reputation yet. And I'm only 17 so Craigslist really wouldn't be an option.
