kent man you are my bro, if worse comes to worse man my parents have a house in their county they rent out. You and your family could stay there as long as you wanted free of charge so you could get on your feet and stuff again bro. I'm sure it wouldn't come to that but just an offer to throw out there to a good guy. keep us updated.

Well, I am broke as a joke and me and you have always got along........If kent don't take it, I will. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

in a first place you made a dumb decision to ship items to Philippines. Since you mentioned that you sell and buy a lot of stuff you should know that high value items should only be sold withing conus. I would never ever ship such an expensive items to some frigin country with no laws and rules.

F. that.

I got burned in the past dealing with stupid paypal and ebay. And guess what when it comes to a seller you on a shit list because these 2 ******* companies dont give a stinking crap about you or your money.

And all this seller protection and other crap is a total scam.

Word, I hate paypal as they screwed me twice and eghey once. I don't sell on either of them..........I do buy off eghey once in awhile though.

what are the options outside of PP

I have done quite a bit of business on here through nothing more than money orders only and I have lost some sales, but it happens as most still think paypal is the safest way.....which it may be for the buyer, but IMO as a seller, it sucks!

hold on... no need to go that route..
whats wrong with shipping or selling something to someone in Canada ?

I think madskillz mentioned it, right below this, lol! I have had shit tied up in customs before......and that was years ago. Never again! I did sell one time to Canada on here, but he had a US addy I sent it too and he went and crossed the border to get it, which saved me.

i will tell ya whats wrong with shippin to canada....stuff gets hung up at the border and then the buyer is jumping up and down..even with your lil paper showing u shipped they can still do a charge back if they dont have it in a certain amount of time...

Word!

About the only thing I buy off of ebay is funky pups.
Paypal and egay are too much of a scam these days to be trusted. Personally I think forums are way better than them.

No doubt about it! Sucks as I have lost a lot of sales due to people wanting to deal with PP and saying no mas to me. I have actually considered going back to it to sell.............but thank god for stories like this, that I need to stay patient and keep doing what is best to me.
