SUPER Positive feedback for Soka.

Bought multiple games and handheld consoles from him - everything was in incredible condition, and packed professionally. Gave me a great deal, and even threw in batteries.

This is the second time I've bought from him, and I would absolutely buy from him again. (especially if he has a virtual boy for sale!)

PS Vita, /w included cables and charger: $150

For included memory cards i'll pay (because i'm assuming if you're selling a system you've owned, you probably also own a memory card):

4GB: $10
8GB: $20
16GB: $33
Not interested in a 32GB stick due to price.

Positive feedback for aktham!!!

Was willing to strike a deal on his Rayman Origins and shipped the game very fast. Excellent seller!
 
WTS Iphone 4 16gb black. Not a scratch on it. The top button stopped working two weeks ago. It just went out of warranty and Apple wants $150 to fix it. It's supposedly an easy fix but I don't really feel like attempting it. It was used on At&t. Asking $200. Possibly open to a Vita trade.

You might check with Flunkie. I offered him 150 but he'd get a bit more from you with the memory so you'd be highest bidder (that I know of!)

Positive feedback for Dacvak who is an awesome buyer. Nice guy on top of that. Would sell to again!

I know this has been brought up before, but I can't find the post. Who is usually responsible for Paypal fees? If a seller puts up an item for $10, would the buyer have to know to pay $10.61 to cover fees or is the fee already considered in the $10 price?

Up to the buyer. But, he should put the info in the listing. If a seller is trying to get you to pay fees and you don't want to, just walk away. I just wouldn't be sending gifts through paypal unless the gaffer is gold status since you'll have no protection.

Depends on the seller decide what you want to do and then you might add that to your post. Paypal gift to avoid the fee seems to be normal here.

My rule is gift up to $50 and then I'll do regular paypal and pay the fees myself to be safe after that when I'm buying. As a seller, I mention gift first and then offer the option for regular at the buyer's expense.

I think the best option is to get out of the gift mentality. Include your comfort zone on Paypal fees in the price you're asking and include shipping too. Frankly, I skip every post that doesn't have a price listed on the goods and I buy far more from people who offer discounts with multiple items. I suspect that's how a lot of folks roll on here.

See bolded. No price listed basically means you want ebay value without fees.

This.

I'm kind of tired of sellers that don't factor in fees into their final sale price. It really isn't that hard to do. It's just lazy and needlessly complicates what should be a simple transaction.

When did it become the norm for buyers to take the hit on all fees anyway? Aren't both parties using Paypal's services?

That has absolutely nothing to do with what we're talking about but I agree.

Most people do paypal gift in my experience so lots of sellers assume you'll be doing gift because that's how they sell and buy. If you don't want to pay that way then add the fee. No reason to make everyone pay more because some don't gift.

It's safer to not gift but transactions are small and fraud hasn't been a big issue here so most don't mind.

I guess I just think it's easier to pick the price you are comfortable with after fees and shipping and post that with your item. People can easily decide if they're interested or not and you can more easily barter if necessary.

Most people assume it will be gifted so they are calculating it with fees. The way you are doing the transaction adds fees.

Uh... I don't think most people assuming gifting. I've only had one person that even requested that in nearly ten transactions now (and more before they were tracked).

So you're saying that people give you a price and then tell you to send it paypal "and add paypal fees?" Yeah, I'd be pissed too. Never had that happen but that's messed up.

WTS:

Like New Sony XB700 - $75 shipped!
Paypal preferred, I only took one pic from my android phone but the quality of the picture is ass. Just got it a few weeks back and decided I don't want them anymore. No scratches/dents, sounds great, even more with a amp.
