Do you trust Audiogon?

@maritime51 - I have made several sales where I insisted the buyer use PayPal Friends and Family because they had no feedback.  I've never had a problem with them accepting this request.

Yes, and it is wire fraud. You are such a nice guy. Your comment begs the question, casts doubt on you, and shows how guiless most buyers are-shame on you for cheating PayPal, and leaving buyers with no meaningful remedy.

Think about it for less than a second. Under the terms of the PayPal agreement which binds you, you expressly and impliedly represent it is NOT a commercial transaction, and the person sending you money, a total stranger, is either a FRIEND or FAMILY, when in truth and in fact, the payment is a sham. 

You think PayPal doesn’t care? First, read the agreement: they can and will LIMIT your account to stop it. Secondly, why not test your proposition, and in the next sale call PayPal and tell them it doesn’t truly involve a friend or family, but is an arms length sale, then report back....

And, if having PayPal limit your account to fee only transactions isn’t sleazy enough for you, how about whether a merchant seller, a term of art meaning one who regularly deals in goods of this kind, is violating the Consumer Protection Acts in every state and the United States by engaging in deceptive or unfair practices of trade or business. Before you say it, liabity is strict, not based on fault or comparative fault, and scienter is immaterial. Do it routinely as a merchant seller and.....💩

I did pretty much trust the process at Agon...until this thread. The number of people that think it's ok to skirt banking laws and the policies of Paypal and Agon are enlightening.

Thing is, you cannot cure an egg sucking dog. Once they get a taste for stolen eggs, it is for life. You either dump the dog, or fortify the coop.

oh, in terms of evil propensities, the egg sucking dog’s cousin, the crap eating dog, is always Johnny at the rathole for the leavings. 💩👀🙀
