Seller doesn't accept Paypal......

Manorcourtman

I thought sellers on eBay had to accept Paypal? This guy doesn't: link-o

He also ignores questions about it! Wanted to buy something he's offering but he won't address payment issues. Go figure.

Just buy it, then file a complaint with ebay when he refuses payment.

Way I heard it, you don't have to accept Paypal. You do have to accept some sort of electronic payment though.
I'm not signed up for Paypal. If you buy from me, it's check, money order or electronic funds transfer.
I haven't sold on Ebay for a few years, though.

Says he takes Amex, which is doubtful.

The only other form of electronic payment accepted is a merchant credit card.

I recently came across a seller who said he took PayPal, but it turns only for verified funds only - no credit cards. What are the rules for this?

That's what I heard too.

This guy is HORRIBLE. I've only had 1 coin not show up and it was from him, I'm standing by my thinking that he ripped me off and didn't send it. He was rude as can be in the email exchange.

I have bought from this seller before and have never had any problem's... although it's been a few year's..so.

mozeppa

these are the accepted methods of payment...



PayPal
Credit cards and debit cards
Moneybookers
Paymate
ProPay
Pay upon pickup...which can be any of the the ones in "other payment methods"... including cash if you pay upon pick-up.
Escrow
Other payment methods .....which can be money orders and checks .....if the customer asks if he can pay that way ...and you agree to it.

I bought several coins from them over several months a year or so ago, with absolutely no problems.

That's an XF? According to ANA Grading Standards ther should be "Light wear only on the highest points".

Edited to add "High points of bow are worn, but all details are clearly defined". Looks like a Fine + too me.

he's taken PayPal from me ... but a much less expensive coin

VF not XF

Or alternatively, if a seller doesn't offer a payment method you're willing to use, find another coin from another seller.

Lists only Amex as the credit card accepted, and posts his street address in two different places. Pretty obvious what's going on. That said, I agree with potato. If you don't like it, just move on.

That's kind of what I was thinking, too. Even if he doesn't take AMEX, it's clear he doesn't want to take PayPal. I can't imagine why anybody would welcome the hassle of trying to force him to do so.

Tell him you want to buy it "on approval".

yellowkid

He only takes American Express??? Try calling his bluff there.

I met Dan a few of the bigger shows, Central States and Baltimore last year. Seems kind of like an odd fellow, and most by a lot of the dealers junk and throws it on eBay.

If he accepts Paypal he must accept it whichever way you choose to send it.

CC, Debit card, verified funds, echeck.

I would not report him for advertising that he takes checks/money orders.. That's not a dishonest thing and I could care less about working for the Ebay Police dept.

An odd coin dealer? Who knew?

Actually, I hope that he can pull his little civil disobedience gambit off. Ebay is too powerful, and PayPal can (but doen't always) suck.

Frankcoins

Sellers need to offer one or more of the following electronic payment choices:

PayPal

ProPay

Moneybookers

Paymate

Credit card or debit card processed through the seller's Internet merchant account

Connecticoin

Ah, yes, one of the high volume crap sellers I exclude from searches. These type of sellers are just a waste of time hitting the "back" button.

I agree. Ebay has created a great environment (for their corporate profits) in which buyers will report sellers not just for doing things that might cheat the buyers but for doing things that might cheat ebay out of a dollar. they must have great corporate psychologists. --Jerry

I have bought from this seller in the past and found that his coins are as described and didn't care regarding paypal.... but then again.....I cherried a bunch of r6 and r7 vams as he doesn't care about them.

If you do not believe that he takes Amex, win something from him and phone him
your amex number.


If the item does not come, neg him.

If he claims at the POS that he takes only paper payments call him a POS.
