What is the reason why a seller won't use escrow dot com, even though buyer will pay for it?
A. Seller does not want to declare taxes in his home country on the transaction
B. Seller does not have a bank account for whatever reason
C. Seller is a scammer
D. None of the above
E. A and B but not C.
F: ??????
If I could get some logical input about this, I certainly would appreciate it.
This is an open question to any of you helpful guys that trade here all the time routinely. I have read enough on this forum about issues about those who don't deliver domains, sell them twice, etc. like the recent example where this Arunas Zygis. Most of you I guess here have their trading rating, you have your trusted contacts and past history- fair enough- and also some of you exclude "unknown" people like me from bidding since I have no track record here. Unless 15 points I think some post said today or yesterday. I understand, but if you want fresh blood, you have to start somewhere. I own 300+ domains from other venues, btw.
So I am new bidding here, and buy a domain. So seller accepts offer, I say put it at escrow dot com and I pay, seller refuses and says cash only- like the advertisement stated. Ok, so can I trust this guy? Sorry. I don't. We both are in the same boat- no trader rating here. It also appears that his multiple listings of the domain here were ignored and nobody bid but me.
I have a had an 820 fico score, I am not bragging just point out my credit is gold. I know bfd, nobody cares. I have not bought anything here on this open bidding forum before on Namepro's until now. So the seller's terms were clear (that I read AFTER the sale- my mistake) I was the only one bidding on the domain (coincidence?, I never should have bid either?) that he wanted to be paid with some system I had never heard of "PayTm". I have no clue about this company at all. Does anybody have experience dealing with them or know if they have the integrity of Paypal? I simply assumed (yes, my fault) that my offer for could be paid for via escrow dot com.
I contacted the admin, and he states I need to work it out with the seller or risk having problems with namepros. I don't need problems with anybody. What are my options? Are there alternatives to securing this domain other than escrow dot com? How would you handle it?
Thanks in advance for your input.
