Why is buying upgrades so freaking stressful

[The Five of Jokers]

I just went and bought 70m rsgp so I can buy upgrades and start a little bit of goldfarming. I need 12 accounts upgrades, just got scammed out of 7m because I went first on a trade so now I'm down to 77m and with all the freaking prices seeming to be so high on the forums it looks like I can either go buy MORE rsgp and spend more of irl money or buy 7 upgrades for like 10-11m a piece...

This is freaking rediculous

at 7m, upgrades cost 7.95 usd by rs cards, so 10-11m is expected,either way its cheaper than in stores, if they do it by sms, pay by phone ect, those cheaper methods, they can cancel the charge putting u in negative credit.

How is 10m a lot? That's $5. Just buy them at 10m off a legit seller, you know they wont be chargedback+ you'll make that 10m back..

How would "they" (meaning sellers because those are the only people you talked about before saying "they") put ME into negative credit? I don't have credit cards or banks linked to any of the accounts I would upgrade so no matter what method the sellers would use, it wouldn't affect my credit at all....

yes but I need to get 12 accounts going and I only have 77m... I can't just start 7 accounts and hope that the profits aren't lost to banning.

the first they refers to the seller of the upgarde, the second they is jagex, if the seller, uses, pbp,sms ect, the seller can call the phone company cancel the payment, then jagex will put your account into negative runescape membership credit.

When most upgrades that you pay roughly 7-9M for usually go in the negative credit area. I would just pay a little extra for something legit.

Bargain-hunting for anything on this site is a good way to get scammed. Scammers can go as low as they want, while trusted users capitalize on their reputation and charge more. You get what you pay for, as they say.

If you're worried about a seller being a scammer, use an MM.

Good advice . I just said f*ck it and sold more stuff on my main to get 100m and bought 10 of em . Now I just need to make some profits and get 2 more

Heyy ive sold Member pins before, hmu if you still are looking for RS member pins. Ive even helped people out who didnt understand or have difficulty redeeming pins. Here are my vouchs selling pins.
1.

Vouch,sold me a members pin!

2.

Vouch for Franzy, I paid 50% for the membership card, had some trouble entering the code but helped me out via Skype and then I paid the other 50%. Would buy from again!

3.

Huge vouch!! Sold me a members pin...was fast and easy thanks Franzy!!

 

As sin said, "you get what you pay for" I personally bought my pins of a guy selling at 10m, but a couple of days later hes now charging 14m per membership pins, the reason why most people sell at high GP is because their service is legit, meaning more people will use them and the guy selling pins know he can charge what he wants because his service is in demand.

Takes money to make money dood.

Pay a lil extra, peace of mind. You get it back in the end. No point in dealing with low balls and be scammed

good luck

I didn't know that, good to know man.
Also i have bought pins for 6-8m, so not everyone is a scammer.
Just keep that in mind too.

Because of childish scammers.

Nuff' said.

 

[Deathsnova]

I got scammed $30, i sell upgrades off my phone and it charges $15 after i text "yes".
The guy logged out, He contacted me via MSN and i had NO idea what is sythe name was when i traded with him. I was scammed and its the most frustrating shit ever. + even if i did find out what his sythe name is, i cant get him banned because i didnt take any pics of the MSN conversation...

ikr? its annoying..

For now it might be a bit hard for you to get discounts on upgrades with your lower vouch count, but once you get up there it isn't that difficult.

Just remember, a day that you aren't running is at least 4m potential lost

even if u use an mm and they use sms,pbp ect and they get it cancelled ull still be in negative credit so mm or not, ur still at a loss.

Just be smart and don't go first to suspicious people.
