J.P. unstable? Was that a question or a statement?

Hey, man, I was all ready to buy Mark's stuff, and I told him I had some nice wombats with breeding potential for trade, but he was all like "No way, man" and he totally harshed my mellow.

He wouldn't even meet me in my local dark parking lot!

Mark -
Paypal provides an element of security for both buyer and seller. I’ve been using it for a couple years now. If someone is going to have a friend pick this up for him/her, I wouldn’t be concerned (meet somewhere neutral though). Paypal is convenient, as you can use a credit card to fund your Paypal purchases. Not everyone has $700 in cash lying about like Bob.
So I told the guy I wasn’t comfortable with the wire transfer, and to send the money to my Paypal account. That was yesterday. Still no money. If it doesn’t hit my account today, I’ll know this guy was a scammer.

Good decision. If you have enough conscious thought to stop and ask yourself the question "does this sound legitimate?", then the answer is "no".

JP, don't you get your birthday as a day off from the stalking routine?

Always call the place you live a house. When you're old, everyone else will call it a home.
