yep. if you are a seller and accept paypal for big items, the buyer wins the battle.
buyer can make a false claim and put the seller in a difficult situation, esp if the buyer won't ship back and its 2000 miles away (yes, happened to me). the buyer can also keep the game and get their money back.
the buyer said through paypal, i had to come get the game, they would not ship back. wouldnt allow a shipper to pick up from them.
what a scam.
my case was an expensive video game and buyer stated monitor caught on fire 2 weeks after he had it, even though has been playing it daily till that point. . i asked for pictures of the issue, he wouldnt send me any. i said id ship him a new monitor for free and tell him how to install or find someone near him to install for him. he said no.
to my knowledge, if someone gifts you the money, they can not do a charge back.
if its happened to anyone here please do tell bcuz im curious. i dont think there is even a "refund" option on paypal if it is gifted.
you can accept a check, wait for it to clear, then ship a game. or a postal money order (no other type of money order).
postal only, take it to post office and verify the serial number to see if its legit.
if its in person sale., cash only though.
