Good morning friends and aquaintances, Wave

I must say I enjoy getting stamps from the auctions and approvals. Most seller friends here know that I normally pay SOR invoices every Friday morning. (and if an invoice comes to me Friday afternoon, then it will be paid the next Friday.)

I have been buying stamps here for several years now, but for some reason I don't see the seller's "change in money acceptance" until I get an invoice.

Seems like several persons I've always bought from in the past, using paypal, suddenly do not accept paypal.

Now, most know here, that I normally only buy from those sellers, who accept paypal, and on occasion, I make a "mistake" and buy from someone who does not accept paypal, and I willingly pay the consequences.

But for people who "change" their payment acceptance preferrences, couldn't there be a better way to let us know.

Perhaps a "NO PAYPAL" icon next to the buy/bid button, as opposed to buyers having to read the "fine print" everytime we want to bid or buy?

re: Must be a better way!

YES! A sudden change like that should be more obvious! I love the "paypal accepted" idea, too.

I don't understand why the seller wouldn't want to make it crystal clear to avoid annoying loyal customers. It might be an oversight or a result of just not thinking things through - something we are all guilty of doing from time to time.

I believe it is good that you wrote about this problem. I will certainly keep that in mind if I ever change any of my terms and I'll keep an eye out when buying, too!

re: Must be a better way!

I do state in my Shipping and Payment Terms that I accept PayPal, but people have to scroll down and read it. My suggestions follow.

For approval books:

If a graphic of the PayPal logo could appear higher up perhaps under the member name, or just "PAYPAL Accepted" in bold text under the user name, that should do it.

For auction lots:

The same, but under the seller name in the "Seller" column of auction listings.

re: Must be a better way!

I state my payment methods accepted, but some people do not read this and send what they like. Grrrr

It would be nice if there was a Paypal logo next each listing that accepts Paypal. I only buy from those that take Paypal.

Yes you can Michael;

Under the tutorial for Auctions it says;

19. Provide a Description: This may include HTML. Please provide an accurate description of the material that you want to sell. If you make a mistake, don't worry because our system has an editing facility, which you can use to change the details of your auction lot at any time. Be careful if you use HTML because errors in your HTML may make your lot unreadable.

re: Must be a better way!

For descriptions for the auctions, but not for the approval books or approval book pages.

HTML can be added in the section for Shipping and Payment Terms (and I have done that), which is a global-type page for a member's auctions and approval books. However, like I said previously, that is way down the page of information. It would be better if it could be added higher on the book information page for approvals.

Here's a link to one of my books. Scroll down almost to the bottom and you can see how the logo I selected looks. I used the smaller one first, but it wasn't very visible (at least on my monitor).

http://stamporama.com/approvals/approvals_main.php?action=1&id=RAf8hT9PGtml6

I will add text "I accept payment by PayPal" in the book description of all my future approval books, and in the item description of any auction lots I list, and leave the logo in the Shipping and Payment Terms as well.

Michael, clicked on your provided link and scrolled down. I never even realized that you could scroll down. "PayPal Accepted button" should be right next to the "buy/bid" button directly on the pages.Happy If Possible, instead of being burried in the middle of a paragraph or on a different page.

re: Must be a better way!

Where did you get that Clayton? I changed those terms over a year ago (when I found out PayPal prohibited charging a fee as a prerequisite for using same). Big Grin Actually that is not a copy of my terms, but it is almost word for word that which I used (I think I charged a fee of 30¢). I do not apologize for charging an "add on" fee and the only reason I stopped it was because PayPal prohibited it.

Folk always have a choice. And if you do not like a Seller's terms, you would be foolish to buy from him. However, sometimes people buy without reading the fine print, which is why, at least on SOR, I will always cancel a transaction at the request of a Buyer. A few pennies are not worth losing goodwill or a friendship over.

Hello Clayton,

"Perhaps a "NO PAYPAL" icon next to the buy/bid button, as opposed to buyers having to read the "fine print" every time we want to bid or buy?"



A 'NO PAYPAL' icon already exists in the approval books, see here http://stamporama.com/discboard/disc_main.php?action=20&id=8427#57000 scroll down to item #5.

For an example of this identification 'in action' see here: http://stamporama.com/approvals/approvals_main.php?action=30&id=RA7y5ZqA/mtSg&pg=1&view=Y

I am not sure if this solution could easily be implemented in the auction. Tim would have to weigh in on this point.

re: Must be a better way!

The good ole PayPal debate always rears its ugly head. In my few sales here, I accepted PayPal, and at times I lost in the overall scheme of fees etc... But then I was just getting rid of my excess stuff so I realized that might happen.

IMHO if you as a seller are willing to offer PayPal, you should accept the fees that accompany it. And where there are no mega corporations selling here, the sellers are selling sans any fee or premium being asked of them to use SOR resources.

I agree that this is to be a friendly transaction between fellow members. If a seller is only soaking, cataloging etc. for the purpose of selling here on StampoRama then it isn't just a friendly relationship between club members but a far more commercial one. And here is where the problem lies. My fear is that there is far too much of a commercial aspect entering the club.

re: Must be a better way!

I didn't realize "this" discussion had anything to do with Paypal fees, especially since I was the one who started the discussion.

You want to charge fees? So charge fees.

I gladly pay your fee for the convenience of using PayPal. I don't recall ever asking any seller to "suck up" the fee.

I thought this discussion was simply about "ME" Big Grin the buyer wanting to make sure that a seller accepted paypal, WITHOUT having to pay my lawyer to read the small print for me'

I just don't think "I" should have to "READ" through pages and paragraphs and Terms & Agreements every time I want to consider buying or bidding on something.

I was responding to the statements about that the sellers should pay all the fees. Unfortunately that happened to show up in this thread. That is the problem with discussion threads. They do tend to meander off subject. I will delete my posts to keep your thread on topic.

re: Must be a better way!

The good ole PayPal debate always rears its ugly head. In my few sales here, I accepted PayPal, and at times I lost in the overall scheme of fees etc... But then I was just getting rid of my excess stuff so I realized that might happen.

IMHO if you as a seller are willing to offer PayPal, you should accept the fees that accompany it. And where there are no mega corporations selling here, the sellers are selling sans any fee or premium being asked of them to use SOR resources.

I agree that this is to be a friendly transaction between fellow members. If a seller is only soaking, cataloging etc. for the purpose of selling here on StampoRama then it isn't just a friendly relationship between club members but a far more commercial one. And here is where the problem lies. My fear is that there is far too much of a commercial aspect entering the club.

re: Must be a better way!

I didn't realize "this" discussion had anything to do with Paypal fees, especially since I was the one who started the discussion.

You want to charge fees? So charge fees.

I gladly pay your fee for the convenience of using PayPal. I don't recall ever asking any seller to "suck up" the fee.

I thought this discussion was simply about "ME" Big Grin the buyer wanting to make sure that a seller accepted paypal, WITHOUT having to pay my lawyer to read the small print for me'

I just don't think "I" should have to "READ" through pages and paragraphs and Terms & Agreements every time I want to consider buying or bidding on something.

re: Must be a better way!

I was responding to the statements about that the sellers should pay all the fees. Unfortunately that happened to show up in this thread. That is the problem with discussion threads. They do tend to meander off subject. I will delete my posts to keep your thread on topic.
