I like this idea but don't think it jives with SN's legal focus. Opening up a can of worms. Also, why I am apprehensive to allow a sports book within the sports territory.

Make sense ad never thought about the legal aspects of it ad thanks for bringing up the legal aspect of it. So is then a @SN marketplace in the same plate?

Hmmm interesting. Are they paying for the products through SN or just coordinating buyers through SN.

Well, the idea is just to enable seller/buyer coordination = P2P. SN it's only the marketing/communication chanel. ATM the buyer is free to select its preferred payment method (SN could be one of the wallet) like in this ad.
If the "payment for goods and services via SN wallet" is (or could be) a legal issue, should we then make explicit and invite the seller to receive payments outside SN?

I would suggest you check with k00b and see what he recommends. I am sure their legal has reviewed all the money transmission stuff and what they can and can't do.

My biggest concern is people selling illegal stuff here. Hopefully we can make some better tools for this kind of thing eventually. When we add sell/buy/trade/etc post types, maybe outlawing can delete them.
Our wallet isn't intended to be used as a wallet for non-SN stuff. We are still working on understanding this better.
