I've gotten by fairly well with check/MO, but there are quite a few "PayPal only" ads in the classifieds. There's also some vendors outside the country who might have problems processing foreign payments. So this weekend I wound up going back to PayPal again.



And just because you have the capability of paying via PayPal, doesn't mean you have to. You could still negotiate deals working in cash or trade if you really want to maintain the peace.

[edit]: Could always squirrel away cash here and there, and take that to the bank and buy a pre-paid credit card. That's what I have my PayPal acct linked to. Pretty much near zero footprint on the household budget, I just reload it when I nail down what I want to purchase.

Paypal is the safest way to sell or buy. One thing I haven't seen is a seller rating like RCTech uses? I did see the feedback section, but doesn't keep track of individual history of the seller or buyer. Am I missing something?

Just go to feedback and type in the persons user name in the search block and you will see all available feedbacks for deals completed... The same or better then a "user rating" number.

You are missing that the member base here on RCC is a tighter close knit community and ripping each other off is not common place like a few other RC forums out there.

I do believe you will quickly find that RCC will ALWAYS be you first choice (probably end being your only choice) when opting to purchase used.

Bad deals are extremely few and far between here.

Is your pay-pal account a "confirmed" account?
Are there any current holds or pending issues with current transactions?
Double check with pay-pal why the transaction will not complete.

How long after you get 30 posts does it take for the classifieds to show up?
