Re: Paypal Question...Help!
Hi All,
I ran into a payment situation I'm unfamilar with. Being here in the States I have sold items where the overseas buyer pays for an item via Paypal, their being a Paypal member. I realize many of the precautions one needs take in order to get Paypal protection against fraud.
A potential buyer from HK of an item I have for sale is not a Paypal member but would like to pay via credit card through Paypal. I guess (and am just assuming) Paypal has a service where anyone can pay for an item via a sort of Paypal "check-out"system, much like a google check out payment system? If my assumptions are corrects, as my being a Paypal member, am I afforded any protection in case his payment is fraudulent like with a stolen credit card?
He is a new e-Bay member with only one positive feedback with his purchase of a pricy photography lens and both gave and received and has been corresponding with me thru the eBay message system. So I'm trying to assess my situation with regards to protecting myself during this sale and that's the nature of my question regarding a non Paypal member paying via credit card through what I would assume is a Paypal type "check-out" system. Thanks for any feedback you can provided, much appreciated!
