Preloved question

overtherainbow, 28 January, 2014 at 20:18 Posted on Off Topic Posts 0 5

Can I ask if anyone has sold something on Preloved? I've got a dress on there and someone wants to pay via Paypal so how do I go about it… do I just send them my email address? It's my first go at Preloved so I'm totally in the dark… thanks!

    I think you have to have a PayPal account, but as they are saying they want to pay you that way, I assume you have one already?? If you do, then yes I am pretty sure (OH has a pp account) you can just give them your email, and they can transfer the money easily and safely to you without knowing any of your bank details etc. I know when OH gets money transferred to him, he gets a text confirming once the money had arrived. Hope that makes sense... Coming from a novice sorry but hopefully my limited knowledge may help a little bit ?

    I have also just noticed that you asked about Preloved sorry ? anyway, as far as I know on that, you just email to each other confirming sale etc, nothing anything more complex than that?! I think ?

    Are they coming to pick it up or are you posting it?

    If they are collecting I would ask for cash so you don't pay paypal fees.

    You just need to remove your ad once the item has sold, simple as that.

    Thanks - they have asked for it posting rather than collecting which I'm happy to do but wasn't sure about how they pay me via Paypal. I have a Paypal account that I use for stuff I get off ebay sometimes so I could use that. I've had a look at the rules and I can't seem to find anything relating to accepting payment by Paypal just buying with Paypal. Should I just give her my email address?

    Do you think it would be easier to accept a cheque and wait for it to clear so I don't get fees? Also, can you refuse to accept a return if it doesn't fit? Sorry for all the questions!

    You just send her your paypal email address if she selects 'send money to friend/family option and her account is linked to her bank account rather than card no fees will need to be paid.

    otherwise make sure she covers any fees her end.
