[QUOTE="weasel, post: 319827, member: 14"] I'm the same. Whenever I sell on here my prices assume either gift payment, hopefully people know i'm not a scammer, or that the buyer pays the fees. I've had a few people back out of deals over this but that's their choice. I state quite clearly in my listings my prices don't include PP or that the buyer pays them. Personally, i don't have an issue with gift payments between regulars and trusted sellers. Our, frequently recurring problem, is people sending gift payments to ANYONE on here expecting everyone to be a solid stand up guy. Whilst we don't tolerate scammers it's impossible to vouch for every single member. Even once decent blokes can turn into scammers. Look at Han. The whole poo pooing of gift payments is basically our way of trying to protect naive overly trusting newbies, or limit the scope for people who are out to scam. If done between long term regulars that's fine. At the end of the day use a little common sense, just check the bloke you're sending money to is actually likely to follow through, if in doubt pay the fees yourself. Obviously, that does leave a bit of a gray area in terms of what exactly constitutes a "long term regular" or a solid seller. There are guys on here with hundreds of posts who have probably not said more than "bump" and "nice item". Going back to my previous example, Han was also a regular and one time decent guy and he ended up scamming people. As before, it's a case of using your common sense guys. [/QUOTE]
