Hi all,
This seller (coins1957) takes ONLY PayPal.(which I donot do) Which might not be a problem in itself. However, in the return answer to my question to this seller. About possibally taking some other form of payment. Here is what the seller wrote back. Please note what is said about BUY ME NOW.
"The point of buy-me-now is to buy and pay immediately. Until a buy-me-now is actually paid for it remains avaliable to other bidders, so if you donot do paypal. How can a seller guarentee that the item will still be there? I'm just selling my collection and don't have any other way to accept immediate payments. Since better then 90% of buyers won't even bid on an auction that doesn't accept paypal. I guess you and your friends are in the minority. I've had too many personal checks bounce on me, and have also recieved counterfeit money orders(yes, even susposedly Postal money orders) so I think I'll pass on that risk. Have a great day!
thank you"

This is his answer word for word. If I read this right you could do a BUY ME NOW and if you donot pay fast enough for the seller(immediately). He doesn't want to give a buyer a reasonable time to pay for a ebay win. The item could/would be sold from under you. I also feel that there is more to this, then is let on; even with his 100 % feedback.
Maybe some of you have done business with (coin1957), and no problems. However, I donot think that I done business with this seller before. And I donot plan to do business with this seller. He talks about taking a chance. Do you want to take a chance with this seller (coins1957)? The seller is in a BIG HURRY to get the money. It's up to you.
Maybe I am wrong about this. But, I am not going to take a risk with this seller, after reading his answer. Even if I did do paypal.
