Buying/Selling with paypal

So seeing as too many people are getting scammed, and no one has taken the time to actually read paypal policy
I will tell all
1) do not send money as a gift as in you cannot file a claim if you get scammed, it is better to pay the 3%.
2) paypal only chagres a fee if you do not have money in your account and it is taken out of your bank or CC, then there is a 3% fee which is charged to the seller. If I have $100 in my paypal and I buy a say goggles for $75 then there is no need to add the 3% becasue I have the money in my account.
3) If you do send money as a gift and you do not have money in you account then YOU are charged the 3%
4) if you belive you are getting scammed file a claim as soon as possible, last time I checked it was 45 days after that you are SOL. Even if you file a claim there is still a chance that you WILL NOT get your money back
5) You would reather file a claim ASAP and make the seller flipout on you rather then lose your money.
If you are a Seller then there is no need to not ship within a week. If you do not have something on hand then do not sell.
I think that is all, feel free to correct me if I am wrong or feel free to add more

No i'm not 12, there's no reason for you to get mad i'm just saying it's a little discomforting when you give someone a large amount of money and they don't get back to you when they say they will.

Nope. The reason I mentioned this in the first place is because he has really good feedback therefore it's a little odd that he hasn't responded in a timely manner. You can say what you want I really don't care I just wanted to know if people had dealt with him and how their transactions went.
