Beware if you buy from this guy.

I talked with him and he wants you to pay via paypal through:
PAYMENT OWED and not under goods.

I've taking Business Law and I had concerns so I called Paypal.

Basically under Payment Owed as a buyer, you have no legal footing or protection.
Also, as a seller, you have better protection too.

Payment Owed could mean anything. There's too much grey area and it's best for buyer and seller for scam.
He argued that it's easier for buyer to scam him under good, to which he gave no logical explanation.

I told him that if I sent the payment under goods, I'd pay $135, which covers A/W, plus shipping for the guitar and then $5 extra.

So, he may or may not be a scammer. But if you pay him through payment owed, know that you have no legal footing. And even if you file a police report, it covers too much grey area and it'd be really hard to prove a case.

So buyer beware. I'm in a rush right now, but I'll definitely post up conversation pics.

EDIT: I've been here for a long ass time, despite my lack of post. (Since 2005). So don't try to fu**ing scam me kid.
Payment Good offers best protection for both seller and buyer.
Payment Owed offers a scam for the seller.

/end rant.
