How to buy stuff through on these forums???

I want to help people from not getting ripped off through our forums opinions on how and how not to buy stuff through our classifieds…

Pay options!!!!! (pay pal, money order, certified bank check) also mailing your money and things to know to track your money like sending your money order by certified mail. So you can get a tracking number and a signature when it arrives to the seller….

Questions to ask the owner (name, address, phone number, email address)
Do not do business through pm’s………always use emails. Their easier to print off or post on forums when you get ripped off to inform others about your un-comfortable experience with the seller…

The price of the item plus shipping cost

Anyone got anything to add?????????????? I tired of hearing about people getting ripped off… Sometimes I think buyers on these forums are just not informed on what the proper way to buy stuff from people you don’t know and it’s to far away to buy in person…


Please make this a permanent post……….. To inform everyone……..



Please post this post to the correct place in the forum

you take your chances ...some people are honest - some are not. its more of the luck of the draw than anything else and you have to be prepared to get screwed or at least get the product in a slightly different form than how it was described. it's one of the reasons why i mostly buy everything new or at least if im buying something off the net id like at least a picture or two..
