yes i know it sucks but im about to list some things on ebay, some could be not cheap, so ideally im going to put in the listing payment prefered bank deposit transfer etc, is there any safer way to use paypal? whats this gift thing?


nothing worse then selling something posting it then getting a charge back as they say not arrived or not as described etc

The "gift" trick is a way of taking money off people with no fees charged, and no comebacks if the item is ****...

That is the biggie. I never realised before, but am sceptical if asked to pay by gift, Id rather take the hit on the charges myself.

so its a way to sell via paypal if you can be genuine enough and let them know the whole facts, paypals quick and easy but its the whole frightner of getting a clawback and loosing the item and the money, can i sell and do it so they pay by gift? or would i have to send a paypal payment request

There are loads come on here bleating that their "gift" has turned out to be a lemon or even non-existant.

Tough !

P.S. When I buy over S'net I get a phone number ask for an account number to transfer the cash into and then do a deal. Haven't been let down so far, most folk on here are genuine, it's the one or two ******* that spoil it !

And breathe !

I've only bought off ebay using Paypal via a credit card, as the "deal" is with the card issuer, so I will ALWAYS get my money back if things go titz-up.
