Online shopping is a two way thing. You could make payment and the seller starts acting up or disappears with your money. On the other hand, the seller can accept pay on delivery option, but when you get the item, you can reject it and decide not to buy again, then the seller ends up losing the money he/she used in transporting it.

A lot of sellers no longer accept pay on delivery option. That doesn't make them a scammer. The best bet is to buy items from locations close to you so you can go see the item for yourself. If you are satisfied with the condition, you pay and take it home. But if the seller is a trusted person you know, then you can decide to risk it and pay before delivery.

If a seller's payment option is not okay for you, move on to another seller. As for me, i always follow my instinct when it comes to online shopping. If I'm not comfortable with a transaction, I'll just ignore and not bother buying.

Well said

That was very risky. Some popular sellers on NL can still scam you, how much more someone you barely know.

Buying from people around my location is my best option, to avoid issues from both end.

I couldn’t agree more..let’s just say I had enough money to play with..

You must be silly! If you do not know the origin of a conversation, oga close your mouth. Not all conversation is for you!

Which guy accepted my price? How did I scam him?

I gave an offer, he said 'ok"

Did he pay and I did not deliver?

Please move along if you dont understand what is being discussed here.

fireback:

but the other guy accepted your price. and you wanted to scam him.

Thank you.

She did not even say anything about payment. She was all about delivery, at that point, I had to remind her that she has not even paid.

That was when she flared up, that shebi we agreed POD, I told her no, we did not even discuss payment options.

I can post our conversation here for clarity. Cos the way she made her post look like I am bad person.

It does not matter anymore anyway, life goes on.

Oga, I am not hungry and I would not scam anyone because of less than 10k item.

I have a name to protect and integrity. These are declutter items FYI, so why scam anyone.

It is a matter of choice. As she no dey comfy to POD, life goes on na.

fireback:

so you want her to pay into your before delivery abi. in this buhari regime. when it comes to scamming, no amount is too small.

Even yahoo boys know say MAGA don wise. that's why them dey go do rituals, and call am yahoo plus.

Mrs Just Very Ok posted items for sale and I ed her for the baby rocker.


Her initial price was 7k and we bargained to a lower amount. She agreed she was going to send it through a dispatch guy to my in Lagos and I pay on delivery. I had already sent the money to my only for her to tell me his morning to send the money to her before she delivers.


I mean who does that in this day and time. I'm even taking a risk by paying for what I have not seen physically.

That's my experience with her.

Lovely decision here. POD is best. That was how one dude here on nairaland swerved me of 6k for a used car woofer. I took the risk of payment before delivery coz I felt 6k was meager. But the pain I felt after being cheated(scammed) was worth millions...

What an experience!


I am not saying she was going to scam me and I never knew people could go through with transacting with someone you never met and then pay before delivery. Even if it 1k.


Life lesson, we learn from people's experience.

You are right.


I am not saying she scammed me as she never did. I was just relating my experience with her.




I have bought a couple of things off nairaland and I always pay at the point of delivery. Even if a dispatch rider bring goods that is not up to par, I have to pay the dispatch rider because he has done his job.


Learnt one or two from your write up

@mrsJustveryOkay


Please I dis not flare up, that assumption was wrong and secondly you thought it wise to hide your bank details on the chat you ed but left my phone number up there ; that is wrong also.



I never said you scammed me or did I write scam anywhere in my writeup? I was only relating my experience with you.



I never knew that people still pay for items to someone they don't know before getting it delivered to them as such I assumed you knew I meant POD.



That aside so what's the way forward now?


Can I still get?




I'm willing to come pick it up on Sunday
