Want to buy ads **Please Read**
There has been a few members that were taken advantage/scammed from posting a "want to buy" ad. The deals were finalized thru pm's and texting.
1.When posting an ad ask for replies on the ad itself not via pm's or text.
2.Never give out your cell number to text pictures back and forth pictures.There are so many phone apps that you can get a ghost number.
3.POST ON THE WANTED SECTION AT YOUR OWN RISK YOU WILL MORE THAN LIKELY RECEIVE A PM REGARDING SOMEONE HAS WHAT YOU ARE LOOKING FOR AT "[email protected]"

3.If someone ask for payment via friends and family/gift. Report them immediately.

I don't plan on selling any time soon, but as for #3 I deal with paypal whenever I buy/sell anything outside of ebay and I'll always ask to send/receive money as gift/friends because that prevents paypal from charging a fee.

and thats how people get screwed over, how can you get a refund when you send friends and family!!! So if a buyer from you would have a grievance and wanted to file a claim, he would be screwed, as in our rules it states no F/F payments. I would also not suggest you ask for such here on the forum!

Yes, this is a given, yet should one ask directly for the buyer to pay, well, then the for sale post disappears, just the same should one ask for Friends and Family. The 3% is negligible, and quite honestly a joke that people argue and fight over this!
