OK, of late it seems some transactions here are going to shit.

People sell stuff that isn't what they claim it is.
People sell stuff that is garbage saying its gold
People sell stuff then 'forget' they sold it to somebody and sell it to somebody else afterwards
People sell stuff, never send it and then disappear

Luckily, whilst its annoying, this isn't a problem that becomes mine cause its not my money and its not my stuff.

But how about some things to consider when buying stuff here

How do you feel about potentially giving the money to somebody and never seeing it again?
How do you feel about receiving a part that perhaps the sellers idea of good condition is a lot different to yours?
Do you really want to go through the aggro of trying to recover the goods or your money (and I am not much help, I don't have a magic box full of everyones details)

So when looking to buy something, here is what I do.
Is the item somewhere I can pick it up and look at it?
Is the seller somebody of decent standing on this forum or they just turn up to sell stuff (look at their profile and posts, bit of research goes a long way)
Is the amount small enough that I don't mind the gamble and can afford to throw it away (If so I suggest you head to the rusho raffle thread instead)

Remember, if something goes bad, we will try to help but we aren't here to help and have no set channels to so you may be on your own.

Wouldn't it suck if in order to access for sale and wanted you had to send me a form with all your personal details and copies of ID so I can give to to anyone that had a problem, thats how it will go if it gets worse.
