Buyers should understand there is always some risk associated with on line sales, and a very critical eye should be used when a deposit is requested or a seller has just joined the club. If you pay someone via Paypal friends and family you have no recourse to recover your money if the seller is dishonest. An item description may be misleading or incorrect and an item may not be as expected upon receipt. The classified rules, which are binding on both sellers and buyers, specify that buyers may return an item at the buyer’s expense for a full refund. However, buyers can minimize the risk of disappointment by asking the seller questions and requesting additional photos.
