Anyone Ever Had a Car Sold Out From Under You?
I love paypal. I dont care if its a monopolistic greedy capitalistic venture that rapes you 5% everytime you use it BECAUSE: You agree to sell a part and the guy says "Ill get a MO in the mail" Well it could be friday evening and the mail doesnt go out till monday or whatever, you are stuck with that part hanging out on the net until the promised MO shows up, hope your not in Ozarkville at the end of a dirt road that doesnt get mail but one day a week or its sitting in a PO box...Paypal is almost instant. Seal the deal and the paypal is there in 5 minutes if the guy is slow on the net. Hardly any longer. You get the part out the next day (or next business day) and the both you are happy. Im waiting on a MO myself right now, and there may be a sent one of mine still in the mail today, both are a question mark until I get a confirmation or an Email back saying "I got it" or something. I did get an intake sold from under me while my MO was IN THE MAIL! The dude said it never showed up so he sold it to the next guy, no call, no nothing. Hell, I never got the MO back until I opened a fraud alert with the PO. 6 months later I get a check from the PO for the MO amount. F that hassle...Im all about deposits if they think youll hold it for them. Keeps you both honest. I took 1/2 deposit for a polished air-gap and I never heard from the guy again, 3 months later I just returned the deposit cash to the return address, and never even a comment on that act, sheesh!
