Title: WHY IS ESCROW which is in place for your protection Not a COMPULSORY Rule
Post by: edar on March 15, 2013, 10:21 pm
* the escrow system which is in place for your protection*  quote from Sr   ....   Why is this not implemented  or compulsory as a  rule  on   Sr  IF its for YOUR  protection 
Did someone forget to add that bit to the rules ? or can I ask for F.E  If  I  get a new vendors  account ?  Just to clarify this
thanks again all  just confused a little

I think your motives for posting in the customer support section on this issue are slightly disingenuous edar having read the other SG thread, it seems like you are more interested in inciting others by posting here. All the same you have every right to do so and the FE argument will rumble on long after the current debate has fizzled out.

No one makes anyone FE, that is the buyers choice. I FE on occasion and I do so in the full knowledge of the risk I take and I own my decisions. If for some reason I ran in trouble I would not be running to the forums crying about how I was scammed. I'm an adult, I know what I am doing and I assume the risk and do not blame others for the choices I make.

If more people took responsibility for themselves instead of not owning their shit and blaming everyone else for the decisions they make this place would run a lot smoother believe me.

As I always say to anyone who asks, do not FE.

It's as simple as that - do not FE.  If you do, you need to understand this means you will not be eligible for a refund in any way, shape, or form.

Nothing to do with F.E just wanting to know if this is a rule or not ... to clarify will it get me banned if  I  ask for F.E  on a new account?

As far as I know as a new vendor you cannot request buyers to FE until you have conducted a certain number of transactions, I can't remember the exact number.

This is correct, and I believe it is 35 transactions ... if I recall correctly.
