I opened one Sunday (on the last day of my 45 day window). They did not respond. I escalated on Wednesday or Tuesday, whenever it was that someone else chimed up in the thread they had issues with the seller. I'm just glad I didn't send the payment as gift as was requested.

That's good. Hopefully your money is returned quick. Smart move not paying by gift.

Well.. yeah, It does. I just don't like seeing people get bilked for good amounts of money. :-\
True. But, it's not like that rule could be enforced. A better guideline would be something like "don't buy hundreds of dollars worth of merch from someoe new to the forum and low or no feedback."

Buy a couple of cheap things you want and see how that goes. If it goes well, become a repeat customer.

How's your paypal claim going?

I think the idea of the disclaimer is that Gaf isn't going to play the part of an arbitrator or give you your money back if you get scammed. But considering what else can get you banned here I would think scamming other members should be worthy of a permaban.

Well, it's not. No one who has scammed here has been dealt with like that. Message a mod about it and see what they say. Maybe their stance has changed.

Their first sale was for like $600 worth of rare Saturn games and that one went fine it seemed like. I assumed that I would be okay for that reason, but... I still don't want to take the gift risk.

I've been out of the TF2 trading business for a while, but I'm pretty sure buds is close to double what KSP goes for (in keys). You could get a few games for them. Just a friendly heads up.

Edit - A brief search leads me to believe buds are worth around 20 keys? KSP is as low as 8 keys +1 ref here: http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/12319952

Yeah, I figured they were worth more than that, but I figure that since it theoretically saves me the hassle of dealing with the Steam marketplace or whatever else I would need to go through to ditch it, it's worth it. My thought was that they seem to be used more as currency than as the actual item, so selling it for exactly what it was worth didn't seem feasible.

I didn't even know that there was such a market for TF2 items until a few weeks back, actually. I haven't played the game for a good long while, and I never got into the whole hat-mania that seems to have consumed it.

no. it's a non receipt claim. am I safe ?

It's been a while since I filed a claim myself but I'm sure that once you escalated, paypal gives the seller 7 days to reply. If they do not, then paypal resolves the issue which in my experience meant I got my money back a few days later.

What I'm wondering is how paypal handles the money from the seller's perspective? Has the money already been put on hold? I seem to recall some people saying that paypal takes the money out of the account until the matter is resolved.

edit:
paypal said:
Be ready to provide agents as much relevant information as possible. Buyers who don't respond when asked will have their claims cancelled. Sellers who don't respond will default the claim, which automatically refunds the buyer

Looks like you and everyone else that has filed a claim are good as long as the seller did not reply.

Really hope you guys get this worked out. Getting scammed sucks, especially when these threads have generally gone without issue for so long.

Hopefully people can still feel safe buying things here.

Can I buy one off you?

If you really want; but I can also just give you one.

As I said, I believe these expire. Even if they don't, you can buy them ingame from what I've been told so there's no point in hording them as I thought there would be :p

If you're giving them away, I'd love one.

Yeah sure. I'll stop with this one until I get home. I just asked a buddy who was at PAX:
"They expire 5 days after the event." So the last day was Monday, this could be the final day.

Looks like they were divvied up before I got on my flight (no one said they took any out of 9 other people yet I went from 10+ to 3), so I only have 3 extras... sorry :\

Last attempt before I give up [and gift the code to a friend].

I'm looking to trade a Deluxe Edition code for Splinter Cell: Blacklist for a code for Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn.

To make you feel at ease, I would be fine with trading you my code first and, when you activate/begin installing the game, you can trade me yours.

Send me a PM if interested! Either Standard or Collector's Edition is fine, I just want a code for A Realm Reborn so I can gift it to my sister.
