He has no feedback and he'll only take cash. I didn't call him a crook--I said he appears that way. By not accepting escrow, even if I pay for it, or credit cards, he's effectively limiting your guarantee of getting the saw. You can give someone with no feedback rating $800 cash on the trust he'll do what he says, I'm not going to. Anyone can process credit cards. Go to bidpay.com, they'll process your card for you, and send a money order. Not having a credit card account is no excuse. And, just to note, any auction over a few hundred dollars that will only accept cash is ALWAYS suspect.njforestfire said:Why does he seem like a crook? I, too, don't have the means to process credit cards and escrow is a pain in the a$$. I agree with him on the certified methods of payment.
Seems like you are passing judgement to call him a 'crook'.
