Would you buy from a Banned member?

Hi,

I have seen some heaters on reptile classifieds similar to reptile radiator but automatically switches of when the case reach 89degrees(i think it was 89)
The problem is the person selling has been banned on here for not supplying vivs.

Would you buy?
You can pay via paypal, would you be covered if they never arrive?

Cheers
John

hell no
if they're not supplying what they're selling, why would you even think about trying to buy more stuff from them?
that would just be retarded

if you can afford to 'donate/lose/throw away' £2-300 to a total stranger, who you'll probably never meet - i can't see why not...

It's just a con, you will never see a thing.

It would depend how well I knew them and what they'd been banned for, if it was for something like swearing on the forum for instance I probably would, but for the reason this person has been banned you'd be crazy to have any dealings with them!

Knowing that they've had problems with undelivered goods I'm surprised you'd even consider trying to buy something from them, you may as well just flush some cash down the toilet!

I would if i could pick it up personally and pay for it on pick up , But if not then no like the others said.

Hi,

If you did risk it Paypal would be safe! Ive had issues in the past with people taking my money and not sending goods but paypal tends to side with the buyer and pay you back.

But its IF you take that risk?? Personally (now) I would not.

Hope this kinda helps.

I know if you buy an ebay item you're safe but don't know how paypal works when it's for goods from someone on a forum.
