GlanzaJ Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 Wanting to buy loads of bits on here but seems like so many people are getting mucked around all the time ?? , i know there are genuine sellers out there Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Matt1878 Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 Just a case of contacting the seller of the item, make sure you pay for the item via paypal and pay the additional 4% fees. This will cover you if anything does go wrong. 95% of the guys on here you will have no problems with at all Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gainzy Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 I'm one Never had one bad feedback yet (jinxed) it's nice to know you can trust people on here as you can save a small fortune on paypal fee's. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
morgey Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 See if theyve got a feed back thread. Even ask the seller they might have a link saved to save you trawling through pages of feedback threads.See how long they've been on here and how many posts they have.

GlanzaJ Posted September 3, 2014 Author Share Posted September 3, 2014 Yeh like i said there are a lot of people who are genuine but seems to be a lot it going on Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Arnold Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 I've had some bad experience and lost money to some people on here, it shouldn't happen but unfortunately it does. Just make sure you pay for goods using paypal and don't send the money as a gift, and don't pay by bank transfer. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
iamlegend Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 indeed I just do not understand how people can bump people or take the utter piss!! again I have all positive feedback on my sale thread Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Beastmode panda Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 Trouble is even if you are a decent seller some people don't even bother to leave feedback, period. So no body knows who is good and who is bad at selling/posting whatever else. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Aamir Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 See how long they've been on here and how many posts they have. ^^ This Surely a member who's been on here a while who posts fairly often wouldn't rip another member off Aamir Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mikey4410 Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 Number 1.... totally agree with the above about lookin up somebodys "content" on this forum is piss easy and you can research alllllll there goings on and there feedback. Number 2 .... if somebody left me bad feedback on here or was upset with something I sold them and told everybody how much of an asshole I was I would be horrified as it makes a big difference to how you are viewed/ come across. I would do all I could to rectify the situation without a doubt. Number 3 ....you can tell those who dom give a shit when you give them bad feedback and they definitely see it and dont even bothermuttering a word.they are the assholes who should be banned from here.

Whitenoize Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 I've never had a problem buying anything from the forum seems I'm one of the lucky ones.. I tend to buy and sell to the same people that have been around the forum years.. I definatley think that a minimum post count should be Inforced before you can sell and not just pay 2 pound and rob sumone of 500 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
_shaun_ Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 To be honest I've probably for about 40-50 positive feed back left on the forum never had anything had said but I've sold well over 100+ items over 10ks worth over the years and very few people actualy bother with feedback Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mikey4410 Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 Totally agree with the above.makes sense Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Jamie5414 Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 Pay 4% paypal fees, then you can buy from anyone without worry of loosing money. Just don't rely on the item incase of a problem. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Whitenoize Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 (edited) Even people who have been here ages are not sending goods, have seen many threads about one person pop up lately I think I've a good idea who you mean but again I've bought a few things of z person and never had any problems it's one of those things if you fuck up and con sumone it gets round fast and people won't buy shit from you.. I've also noticed the past while it's got very clicky on the forum the rules don't seem to apply to everyone anymore certin people seem to do or say what they want and threads get locked if they don't like the content or it's about them which isn't really on Edited September 3, 2014 by Whitenoize Quote Link to post Share on other sites

morgey Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 Even people who have been here ages are not sending goods, have seen many threads about one person pop up latelyThats why you check for feedback as well bith my points were aimed to be put together.But at the end of the day all it takes is for someone to flip out one day a decide to be a c**t take the money and fuck off with it. That's why unless its someone you know and can trust you should always pay with protected mean i.e paypal for goods. Would you rather save £8 on a £200 item and not get it or spend £208 and not have to worry if you get it or not. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
daniel_g Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 Even people who have been here ages are not sending goods, have seen many threads about one person pop up latelyIf its the same person i'm thinking of then yeah thats a total piss take. Was waiting 2 months for an item. I will now never buy another thing from them again. Their loss. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

But besides that i'm one of those people who trust other people way to much and just think it's a shame the way it in general, not just on forums It's put me off buying things just because of the hassle of it to be honest protected or not protected Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jimmymac101 Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 We need eBay style ratings.... All start with 100% and if there's a bad transaction admin can deduct a % and for a good sale we could just have a tally of how many good sales have happened per member So for me it would be Jimmymac101 100% feedback 2 sales Just my thoughts James Quote Link to post Share on other sites
