Seller anyone
I posted a thread a few days ago asking if anyone had heard of a seller named David Carner and no one had. So rather than send him $125. cash I asked him to go through ebay or paypal. I haven't heard from him since. So, be careful, they are out there.
Thanks, Norm |

Re: Seller anyone
Doesn't mean he is a bad guy, or a good guy. Maybe he doesn't deal with ebay or paypal period.

Re: Seller anyone
Same as Charlie Stevens said in his post or maybe the guy's integrity was insulted. some still believe in keeping there word and there integrity is first and foremost.

Re: Seller anyone
I would think that he should have at least responded one way or another.

Re: Seller anyone
Not sure. I had someone contact me about a windshield frame. Couldn't send picture, wouldn't tellme where in PA he lived and wanted a Moneygram. All o those things added up to a red flag to me. Sadly, there are some dishonest folks in this hobby who use the net to their advantage.

Re: Seller anyone
any one asking for western union or money gram for payment is a scammer, if you send money by either of those your money is gone

Re: Seller anyone
I hear Pay Pal is the modern way to buy and sell products on the web. I'm told the account is very safe and easy to set up.

Re: Seller anyone
I have never had a negative situation when using PayPal together with my credit card to make eBay purchases. Establishing a PayPal account was relatively easy. And I have had no problems in making purchases from established and/or known Ford Barn members.

Re: Seller anyone
Paypal is very useful for a lot of things including sending money back and forth with my kids! Instant transfers. There are risk with any transaction and you have to be careful who you are dealing with, but Paypal is the best I have found. Use it a lot with no issues so far.

Re: Seller anyone
I agree with the others about Paypal. It is quick and easy to use. They charge a fee that, when included with Ebay charges, is fairly high. It is safe, which is a valuable feature these days.
I have bought and sold stuff on eBay and FB with great success. As has been said many times, with FB transactions, some trust is involved. I have had no bad experiences. Some sellers require a money order, which probably makes sense, although for many people, a check is fine, too. |

Re: Seller anyone
Where is this David Carner supposedly from? I have a friend by that name and has been a car guy in the past, but doubt he would have any Ford parts. Let me know location. Thanks. Rod

Re: Seller anyone
I bet there are probably quite a few David Carners in the USA, and we still don't
have one shred of evidence that Any Of Them have done anything wrong. wyonorm, you should list more info, and list ALL the things that a person by this name has done that proves he has tried to scam you, cause, as of now, this is a waste of time. .
