I thought I would start a thread to see how people feel about gift payment requests from sellers.
I paid this way for awhile, until there were some major problems with some sellers. They were stealing money, and sending nothing!!
Before these problems where people were getting ripped off, I was using the gift Tab so much that Paypal started asking questions about some of my transactions.
A few months ago stopped paying this way. Its not that I dont trust the people here. Most sellers here are awesome. But paying using the Gift tab totally screws me out of any chance of getting my money back if something goes wrong, like not receiving anything!! Something that happened to many buyers a few short months ago.
Its nothing personal against any sellers here. If you are worried about paypal fees bump your selling price bit to cover, but please dont ask me to give up my protection for a few dollars
How does everyone feel about paypal gift payments???
