    paypal to buy gear?

    have you guys ever heard of domestic email sources taking payment through paypal for gear? he claims that i will be able to verify delivery. Does this sound fishy?

    Guess it really depends on how well you know this source. How 'bout refs?? I guess it would be more conveinient but I'd be a little hesitant.

    Paypal is owned by ebay and ebay has a 100% cooperation with the law policy. The police do not need to supply a warrent, or even evidence, they can just ask paypal to hand over ALL your info and they will. Fuck paypal, why risk it?

    Once again, paypal will give any information they want to the police, FBI or any other government agency for any reason at all. Including your credit card info, transfer history, SS #. Fuck that mess.

    I totally agree with that. On top of everything else, even before E-bay (e-bitch) bought PayPal (no pal of mine) Paypal had an arbitrarily set policy on money. They could, used too, and were known for, freezing accounts with lots of cash in then, should they ever think something illegal was going on. You wouldnt see your money for months.
