Escrow is a great site to use if you are buying something really expensive. One, escrow confirmes payment from the buyer, ie, they make sure the person isnt using a stolen credit card or something. Plus they dont release any money to the seller until the buyer is happy with what he/she recieved. However, escrow does become expensive, especially if you want to pay with credit card b/c you have to sign up for their premier service. The best escrow site in my opinion is www.escrow.com.

Paypal sucks if you get swindeled. Their customer service is horrible. A friend of mine forgot his password, and he sent them every sort of document they asked for short of his fingerprints. They told him, after proving that the account was his, that they would put a hold on the account until march(4 months) and that they could even send the money back to the people that paid him. Plus they wouldnt let him talk to a supervisor and would cut him off. They suck.
However it is good for quick payments and is great as long as you dont get screwed.

paypal is not the best for doing business online, they just make it easier. if u go 30 days past the transaction date, forget it.
If u want security, u must use escrow, plain and simple.

COD is nothing. You have to pay when u get the delivery. Doesn't let u inspect and and/or connect.

paypal is just a payment method, yes it has some buyer protection IF you buy the extra protection, otherwise ur SOL, especialy after 30days.
DOn't count on Paypal for 100% satisfactory transaction.

paypal is just a method of payment. I could write a book on how many scams go through paypal. What do you think happens when you pay with paypal that secures you? The 30 day refund policy? I have news for you all. - If the person does not have money in their paypal acct you will get NOTHING for a refund.

Scammers use this all the time. Eventually with enough charges against a person, they will shut the paypal acct down, but paypal does nothing. They won't pull the money out of their credit card or anything. Unless they have a cash ballance in their paypal acct when you ask for a refund, you get NOTHING.

I've dealt with their customer service countless times for people on scamboards.com. You will get nowhere.


Listen to Derek. If you want to make sure the product will arrive, and be ok, nothing is better than using an escrow service (escrow.com preferably).


Paypal will do nothing for you. If you deal with a scammer, good luck. You'll be wishing you had listed to him.
