    Quoted from Pintopia:

    Well it's me that made the offer and yes my story is true. I had a scheduled procedure that was supposed have been same day but my stay got exstended. So many so quick to judge amazing.
    I have been In this hobby since 2001. I started at RGP as pinsgonewild then came here. I have bought and sold many games throughout the years and have used PayPal in many of the deals buying and selling and NEVER had an issue!
    Have faith in your fellow man (may not be politically correct there) As I tell my 9 years old daughter there is more good in the world than bad.

    Well stop using PayPus - it is a shifty way to pay and a VERY long way from being safe.

    I don't blame most on this thread for being wary - read and learn just how bad PayPus is.

    A clarification for those suggesting "remove the money from PP ASAP".

    That's fine BUT if PP reverses the payment they will then try and get the funds back from you from CC or bank account on file.

    If that fails they sell the debt STRAIGHT AWAY to a collection agency. If the agency can't get the funds from you BAM - your credit rating is destroyed!!! You will be the loser here, even if you DO keep the payment.

    Just don't accept PayPus for any transaction that you are not comfortable losing the full amount.

    For me these days that's $100.

    Quoted from flynnibus:

    sending money without cards is still free

    ONLY within the country where your account is set up - not internationally. International transactions (even as a gift) attract the usual monetary conversion fee AS WELL as a PayPus charge.
