New credit card payment option

I appreciate it when other sellers and buyers reference a name when giving feedback, however, criminals can use that to their advantage as well. For large transactions I require that we speak on the phone and share personal email messages. Good luck with your sale

maplegrovemusic,

ask the buyer for his contact #. Then, you guys can sort out any logistics.
Nothing wrong with having a cc account address that differs from some other address (personal, business, residence).

Happy Listening!

I have spoken with the buyer previous to posting this inquiry . He wants me to ship the amps to an apartment in Ney York City to have the amps converted to 220 volt . He then plans on shipping them to a "friend" in Israel . This is my only concern really . Who's on the hook if they do not make it to Israel ? Also there are many different credit card companies . Who's policies are these transactions falling under ? Is it different for each card ? Is it Audiogon who makes the rules ? The buyer did state he is fine with me shipping to his address which is listed with the sale but prefers the techs house who will work on the amps . He stated it is an hour drive and getting the big heavy mono blocks there would be simpler shipping . I agree , but in the past using Paypal you had to ship to a Verified address .

This can be a red flag. I once sold some camera gear on eBay and the buyer wanted to ship it to his non-eBay address. Later the credit card transaction comes back declined and it comes out the use of the card was not authorized. With credit cards it can be a few weeks before you find out the transaction has gone bad this way.

You best run from that sale as soon as ya can!
