I sell items every now and then. What/where is the risk to seller?
For example, I sell an item and the buyer pays. 2) I check PayPal and the funds are there. 3) Regarding risk/scam mitigation, can I send the item to the buyer at this point or do I need to wait for the fund to be transferred to my personal account?
I understand, if I send an item before the buyer pays it's a risk.
If I approach the sell in the above mentioned fashion (1-3) do I need to request G&S still? I understand the protection but how can I get burned following the 1-3 approach? With this approach is F&F fine from the seller perspective.
If I request G&S, the buyer can make the purchase how they so choose. If I request G&S, they pay F&F, how do you regular sellers handle that situation. My guess is the risk is on the buyer and the seller is free and clear for any mishap (shipping, etc.).
Thanks for taking the time to review/comment on my PayPal newbie questions.
