Default Re: PayPal

I've never had a problem with Paypal or with buying and selling on Ebay. But I got scammed by someone and I used USPS money orders and I'll still never see my money again so they are no safer than Paypal. Sure, everyone gets those bogus Paypal and Ebay emails by scammers phishing for your account, but you just ignore them and you won't have any problems. If someone insists on postal money orders, that's a red flag for me. I won't deal with someone that insists on money orders if they can't give me a real good reason for it. They want money orders because they can run down to the local WaWa and cash them in and you'll never see or hear from them again. Everything is a risk and you just have to gauge it or go by gut reaction. I sold my 68 Camaro with the LT1 to a guy in England off Ebay and everything went smooth.
