I'm in the 'forget Paypal' camp.
Never had a problem with DD banking but Paypal….enough to tear my hair out.
The dodgeys are pretty easy to spot, though I did have to hang back for the IIS member who told me to post an item before the DD had cleared….all good, but had to be sure.
B+H Photo holds the record for me with delivery…4 days from the US. Had to wait longer for bits from Australia.
Matt

My bank refuses to DD with paypal saying I must use a credit card instead. When some of the banks themselves refuse to deal with them it's a sign. Consumers are not offered any protection from paypal, both buyers and sellers. When we had a transaction go dodgy as a buyer one day paypal refunded us the money... and then proceeded to freeze our account for about 60 days. They claimed it was to "ensure the money clears" whatever that garbage means.

Hey as a matter of interest, with Paypal you have the full contact details of the buyer, if they do a dodgy chargeback is there any legal recourse if they live in Australia? I wonder if the receiver of a dodgy chargeback would still be all non-responsive when the cops knock on the door.

I've sold a few of my items on IIS and have never had any issues. I usually check post count and previous posts to make sure they are active. If in doubt I can always ask for contact details and I always provide mine in case they have questions.

I think simple checks and communication goes a long way
