A word about Scammers
It's two different arguments discussing buying on FABO and selling here. With reference to scammers who SELL on FABO: Those of you who are "cash only" buyers have no recourse to the seller who gives you (the buyer) nothing or not what you thought what you were buying. It would be idiotic to put cash in an envelope and mail it to a stranger. Walmart and western union are the same thing as sending cash. Paypal does tend to favor the buyer over the seller so that's the time to use it. Regular credit cards if the buyer will take them can do chargebacks if the seller rips you off. Postal money orders are harder to get back on a fraud claim. It's important to look at the sellers background and don't spend more than you can afford to lose.
i would like to offer a solution - at least for dealing with me anyways. I am somewhat new. I have not bought or sold here before. Red flags for sure. I will, "pretty much" only deal with cash - wal mart transfer - or cash from hand to hand in person. More red flags. You don't KNOW me. More red flags. Probably enough red flags already MOST will not even attempt to purchase something until a track record has been established. That is very understandable and I can't blame anyone for feeling that way as I am same way myself.
soooooo.......
Until I have established a reputable track record - I will agree to do this:
The buyer sends the agreed upon amount of money to ANY very reputable person on here that THEY CHOOSE using WHATEVER payment method they want to use. Provided of course they can get someone from here to do that for them. Then let me know who it is. I will get ahold of them or them get ahold of me to let me know you made the payment to them. THEN after they receive the payment and I am made aware of it - I will photo or record me mailing item from post office(if post office will let me as I don't know if video and pics are allowed at post office)... send you evidence at least I sent "something", so you KNOW you will be expecting something for sure in the mail and about when you should get it.... THEN after you receive the item and inspect to make sure I did not lie about the part or tried to hide something from you THEN you contact the "holder of the money" and inform him/her that all good, they get my info and send me cash in the mail.... oooops not lol.... walmart money transfer.....
I realize the "holder of money" will have a cost to do this, probably on both ends of the stick... < I > will eat this cost plus 5 bucks, or 10 if have to be for fuel to goto a walmart
Yeah I will not make much on some things but I am willing to start from the bottom up to show you MY WORD is who I am.... I have made many a deal in my lifetime just with a handshake.... you folks do not know this or even know me... but you will
Would this be acceptable? Fair?
TRUST is not given - it is earned!!!
