When you know your payment method read over the titles of threads to see which seller takes your form of payment. A tip i like to use when finding a potential buyer/seller is looking at the number of posts/veiws on their thread, which can be found here,
http://screensnapr.com/v/kE1YWK.png
Now there is plenty of legit sellers who arn't in the 2,000 posts range on their thread, but if you want safety it's best to go with the most well-known sellers. Now that you found a seller, read over his thread, which can be found here,
http://screensnapr.com/v/3Yq5sV.png If that is the desired price range your looking for GREAT! now onto the next steps of making a safe trade!
How to tell if the Seller/Buyer is Legit:
Most Sellers/Buyers keep a link to their vouches in their signature, which can be found here,
http://screensnapr.com/v/TdQ3c1.png What if your seller/buyer doesn't have their vouches in their sig? WELL! no worries! we have that covered aswell! a simple search can fix this problem, at the top of your page click search, advanced search, which can be found here,
http://screensnapr.com/v/j8wkCt.png Once in the main search form ,
http://screensnapr.com/v/EE9m2v.png Click the find posts drop down arrow, and select threads,
http://screensnapr.com/v/kBsDfY.png When you have that selected type the name of your potential buyer/seller,
http://screensnapr.com/v/bTUvVA.png After selecting the correct person hit search,
http://screensnapr.com/v/WpFnXt.png
Great! you now have your seller/buyers threads on display,
http://screensnapr.com/v/jZ5H8z.png Locate theri vouches page, which is normally titled in this form ( NameHere_____Vouches!)
http://screensnapr.com/v/40YEme.png
Click the link, and start to read, a tip for how i read over vouches is this format, Quality of the vouch, the amount of vouches, the total rate of USD the trader has handled over their time on sythe. These three factors help ALOT if you follow that format you will be well on your way to a scam free stay on sythe. Hare are some vouches
http://screensnapr.com/v/d8QDdX.png Now you ask, how can i tell if these vouches are real or not? Well if you wish to be a private eye, heres a method of checking the legitacy of these vouches.
First thing is to scroll down the page past the traders original post, and start to read the vouches the people left themselves,
http://screensnapr.com/v/RwsfAH.png
Now of course you can check every single vouch if you'd like, but i like to just find some of their best vouches, and check those, heres how you do that, What i normally do is locate their most recent vouches , so go to the very last page, which can be found at the top or bottom of the thread here,
http://screensnapr.com/v/Z1FkQs.png Heres a vouch i selected,
http://screensnapr.com/v/JyM3cR.png There is two methods of doing this, you can use the search tool like we used earlier, or google, i will show you the google method first.
Once you copy the vouch text
http://screensnapr.com/v/uOrt8W.png go to
www.google.com and paste it into the search engine, also make sure to put the vouhcers name before the text,
http://screensnapr.com/v/EBatXQ.png once that is done find the link to the page where the trade happened,
http://screensnapr.com/v/ykmwX2.png Grat job, you just located the vouch on the thread where the trade happened!
http://screensnapr.com/v/qUKHRk.png
Now, how to do that same method, but whilst staying on sythe, this method can be one of two ways, you can click on the persons name if you are still on the vouch thread, and select find all posts by user,
http://screensnapr.com/v/LL9kWv.png however, if you can't locate the vouch on the vouch page, and it is just quoted in the original post simply copy the name from the quote, **This persons vouch has not been quoted and added yet, but heres a picture of what you would have done if it was,
http://screensnapr.com/v/1LjsOK.png ** Once you have the name go back to the search tool at the top of the screen, This time however we will be selecting find posts by user, NOT threads started,
http://screensnapr.com/v/QXpTPO.png then hit search.
After selecting the thread that the post was in,
http://screensnapr.com/v/oyRFkn.png You may start to search for the vouch, now depending on the Date the vouch was left, and the number of posts on the thread, it will determine how hard it is to find the vouch, now since i used the google method earlier, i already know what page the vouch was on, but if you don't, the best thing i can tell you to do is to go through each page, until you find the one your looking for, you may even find some other vouches along the way, the more the merrier!
How to find a OMM/MM:
Great you find a buyer who you deem safe to use, but why not go ahead and add some extra security. First things first, you will want to locate the Middleman Section, which just so happens to be in the market section,
http://screensnapr.com/v/GAPgzF.png Now to select a OMM/MM, you have two choices here Official Middlemans are normally considered the most trusted out of all the MMs. As they must go through an difficult application process, Now there are some legit non OMMs out there, and thats what we are going to focus on here.
