Depends how much and whom you gonna pay, because there's no exchange rate for caps/money.
For a big PvP faction 50K could be a deal of a evening but for a loner it could be a week of work.

Also, in case of scam it would be a tricky business.

No offense, but... really? You would pay real money for virtual caps in a beta game that has bugs, scammers, and could be wiped in a week from now (though that last part isn't probable) that just consists of gangs farming tons of caps anyway?

Just to get me started.

scammers
That's what gonna happen in 95% cases, if people scam others at beta test in trading section for almost nothing... when it comes to real money, even more scammers will appear.

Abe, i honestly would do that.

I'm often in no mood to craft things/hunt caps/do quests. There is usually no caps at vendors. When i get some caps, two hours usually lasted and these two hours i could spend more productive.

So, if someone has a more efficient way of getting caps, by trading or PvP or whatever, i'd really contact him and make a price. I'll spend money i earned at my work IRL, and i don't want to work in my free time for getting caps.

And if both sides are satisfied, that's only fair. However, in case of scam, i'd like to quote Lexx: "shit hits the fan when it comes down to money."

Ingame there should be a player reliablity/trust bar or something.

Definitely no, don't bring in devs in this game or they could get trouble for co-organising this. This should be made completely by players. Or trusted factions, in this case.

I think this guy is just too desperate (I know getting caps is just little harder than before wipe, but still possible with few tricks)

How would characters in-game have this kind of A-Priori knowledge?
