Safest way to trade?!?
« on: February 21, 2006, 10:53:59 AM »
Im wanting to buy a phat with sum of my money

As both posessions are valuable, is there a way that neither of us can get scammed.

Cos i dont want to send my money first, instead he runs, and no doubt he is the same

Any ideas will be much appreciated.

Can I cancel a payment that I've already sent?

 You can cancel only unclaimed payments. If your payment is complete, please contact the recipient of the payment to request a refund.

The question above is from paypal.com

So if i pay half, and the person accepts, i cannot cancel the payment.

if im trading cash for a phat, would it be safe if the seller put his phat on ebay with a "buy now" price on, and then i buy it through ebay.  

Would buying through ebay mean that neither of us can get scammed?

I cant sell through ebay anymore because it always gets taken of by Jagex  http://images.thetechguide.com/forum/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/mad.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':angry:\' />  and some other people will know of this by experience. . .

Try to buy of people who have a verifed Paypal Account (like me  http://images.thetechguide.com/forum/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tongue.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':P\' /> ) because they are registered all through to their bank so are more easily traceable, or ask for links to past ebay sales which include paypal addresses as proof of previous sales (verifed sellers will have numbers against their names of successful sales)

the safest way to my nolage is to put the item on ebay as a buy now at the agreed price. at an agreed time. then the agreed buyer goes and buys it straight after so that jagex don't have time to pull it.
well any way it works for me.
hope it helped!http://images.thetechguide.com/forum/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':)\' />

eBay is not full proof but it is step to take to lower the risk of getting scammed.

first off, dont actually buy a phat. buy the gp equivalent so you can then go buy a phat.

this is safer because it allows you to trade in chunks, so you dont have to trust the seller with all of your hard earned cash http://images.thetechguide.com/forum/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\';)\' />
