August 28, 201312 yr So in you're opinion as a osbot registered user, what are the positives and negatives with using Paypal to buy/sell virtual-goods (accounts, gold, services, etc) ? Positives: -Fast -Easy To Use -No Required debit/credit card information -Simple To Use -Good Support Negatives: -Chargeback Edited August 28, 201312 yr by 313wizerd
August 28, 201312 yr Negative - Really Really Really, easy to get chargebacked Positive - Easy and quick to use I'd rather use playerauctions
August 28, 201312 yr Positives: Fast Usually pretty good customer support -- Negatives: In favor of the selling when virtual goods are involved (90% of the time)
August 28, 201312 yr Author Yeah that is what I thought. Thank you guys, keep going though! I really want to use paypal as a payment of purchase since it almost guarantee's a secure transaction for the buyer. Seeing as if all goes well, I would not charge back.
August 28, 201312 yr You don't have to give out your debit/credit card information to pay for something online
August 28, 201312 yr You don't have to give out your debit/credit card information to pay for something online What I love.
August 28, 201312 yr Author So essentially it has more positives then negatives, im feeling confident and looking to buy a pure account
August 29, 201312 yr just recently i sold something to someone on paypal for 500, turned out that somehow my paypal was linked to someone else's bank account number instead of my own (never found out how it happened, i think it was some weird glitch in the system or something). ended up taking over two months to solve my problem, spent maybe 12-15 hours total on the phone with paypal, and working with my bank (without the manager of US bank fighting for me i don't think i would have got my money back). WORST customer service ever, no one at customer service believed me or even wanted to help me. then a month after that i get a call from paypal saying i owe 120 dollars from a payment that didn't go through on their end over 6 months ago. so pretty much, FUCK PAYPAL
August 29, 201312 yr Positives: -Fast -Easy To Use -No Required debit/credit card information -Simple To Use -Good Support -Chargebacks (As a buyer) Negatives: -Random limitations on your account
August 29, 201312 yr make sure they have a paypal balance usually no charge back i think and make them gift it. only thing can do is dispute it.......... doubt theyll win though
