How do you pay for stuff?

I used PayPal exactly once. Self inflicted loss of almost $2000.
For me , it’s FTF or I don’t need it that bad.
 
If they won't take a regular check, I don't need it. I've relied on the feedback on LRH and so far so good, and my one purchase here was fine as well.

Paypal is anti-2nd Amendment, so a big no for me.
 
Been looking for an excuse to post this......


Crawled to the coffee shop at 2:14
Hanging hard
Needed his caffeine
Barista told him
We don't take cash
He slapped the bar cuz
He didn't want to crash
He said "Let me tell you son why, Cash is king
Pawn your guitar or your wedding ring
And they don't pay you in Crypto , Or NFTs
They only pay you in hard currency
Chorus:
This is the problem with society
If you wanna walk the line
Cash is still the king
And you can't , Venmo a stripper ,When their, Sitting on your zipper
But you, Sure as hell can tip 'em , With a 10 dollar bill
You can, play poker with it, some people sniff it
Roll a joint with it , or buy some bling
You can jam it in a jukebox
Stick it inside your socks
Criminals wash it, and it comes out clean
If you tip on Venmo,everyone will know
All of your payment history
Barista gave him, a free latte
He said 'This ones on us, you ain't gotta pay'
Leaving he heard him tell some new trainees
'Its High time we changed our policy'..why ?
Cuz you can't , Venmo a stripper
When their, sitting on your zipper
But you, Sure as hell can tip 'em
With a 10 dollar bill
You can, play poker with it
Some people sniff it
Roll a joint with it , or buy some bling
You can jam it in a jukebox,
Stick it inside your socks
Criminals wash it, and it comes out clean
If you tip on Venmo, everyone will know
All of your payment history
If you've been doing time ,
If she says your place or mine,
Hell if you wanna walk the line,
Cash is still the king
Cash is still the king

i only use venmo, paypal, zelle, cash app, apple pay, FTF, money orders, wire transfers, third party, ACH, direct deposit, crypto, check, cash, credit, debit, . really anything. i'll even accept IOU's if i'm feeling frisky. i trust people. and i've only ever been burned like 2-3 (hundred) times

seriously tho, i really do use any of those. just be smart where you're receiving/sending money to.
 
Venmo or paypal, if i dont know the person i pay the little extra protection and dont use the freinds and family. to me its worth a little bit extra, only takes once
 
I've sold/bought quite a few items including about a half-dozen firearms with folks on here. Have got to say they've been about the easiest people I've ever dealt with in that regards.

Would give a hearty recommendation to any of them that ever want it (y)
 
I just had a very smooth purchase with @It’s Bucky . I sent him a check and he sent me a scope. Easy peasy
Your not going to believe this crap! @It’s Bucky sent me a beautiful scope. I sent him a personal check the very same day. I received the scope on last Thursday, and the F'ing USPS has not yet been able to deliver the F'ing check!!!! If he doesn't get it today then another goes out priority mail on Monday.
 
There's no 100% secure means available as far as I can tell. A personal check in an account that has very little money in it is as good as anything.

If you have plenty of money in your checking account, and good history with the bank, they'll release the funds to you before it's cleared to them. And good luck getting them to tell you when it's actually cleared.

Money orders are a waste of time.
 
I should update my reply a bit. I do have PayPal and whoever you send money to does not need an account. Paypal will transfer the money to their credit or debit card. I prefer to use my credit cards when I can because the bank guarantees against fraud to a certain extent but losses on debit cards are on yer own. However, I keep minimum money in the accounts that I use debit cards online.
