paypal is a piece of shit and none of you assholes understand that - Gaston44 - Jul 25, 2014

I've gotten charged back SO many fucking times on Paypal and so have many, many others. Yet, the community insists on using Paypal and all other methods are seen as "Russian scam attempts" or some bullshit. Paypal is literally the worst fucking company to exist on this earth. I called them after I lost $350 to a chargeback and I was told we favor the buyer. WHAT FUCKING COMPANY SAYS THAT THEY FAVOR ONE PARTY OVER ANOTHER? I've tried to use Bitcoin exclusively but in a month I had less than a dozen transactions so now I've had to resort to using shitty PP again. They take like 20% conversion fee when trading with people from other nations too. Bitcoin is entirely safe and decentralized and there are no fees whatsoever, yet no one wants to make the attempt to learn how to use it. I'm always told "oh, this is too complicated I don't want to attempt it at all. Also to buy them I have to put too much personal info." WELL YOU KNOW WHAT? PAYPAL HAS THE LAST 4 DIGITS OF YOUR SOCIAL AND YOUR BANK ACCOUNTS. When I got charged back, I refused to pay it and they literally went into my savings and took the money out. The company sucks and everyone who insists Paypal is the best way is retarded.

I have the same oppinion. There's only like 10 traders max using Bitcoin.

PayPal's a bitch, say whatever you want. That's why I don't use it anymore. If I want to trade, only Skrill or BTC.

I've dealt with people with the CLEANEST sheets and have still gotten charged back. Literally someone can have hundreds of rep and then decide to end it all by charging back everything. That's bullshit.

Why the FUCK not? How is Paypal considered the safest option? It's literally the least safe option possible. Everything boils down to reputation anyways. I've stopped trading here entirely because the administration is so close-minded that they aren't willing to accept an alternative to Paypal.

We never claimed that paypal is the safest option, its indeed not. It has to do with our staff knowing enough about a particular payment method to effectively identify and deal with issues when they inevitably arise. See http://forums.sourceop.com/threads/25150 for reference.

Btw, quick check of your rep thread shows a lot of recent non compliant rep/outside rep, also the users you deal with, new/low steam account levels, low games ect.. (ref http://forums.sourceop.com/threads/125535) no wonder you have issues being scammed.

edit: sop rep is for sop trades, not outpost or wherever else you post your sop link, anymore invalid rep you collect and your thread will be invalidated.

So maybe it's time to get staff that is familiar with other payment methods..? Isn't that the solution?
