OKay I advertised my 80GB white iPod for $200. I bought it for $350 but since the new generation iPods are out and the $250 6g 80gb Classic iPod totally kicks my 5.5g 80GB iPod I decided to sell it at a low price of $200. I talked to the guy and everything were meeting in a public place for the deal. Hes paying in cash. Anything I should watch out for? I'm getting kind suspicious since he might give me fake money or something, how do I check if its fake and stuff? Its going to be hard to track him down since its going to be like a random meeting so I can get screwed over if he gives fake money. What are some other possibilities that could go wrong on selling stuff on facebook to a random guy?
Don't go alone, take a friend or two with you. And hold the money against the light, and see if there's a watermark.
Come on dude , you aren't the first one selling to exchangers !!!! do you feel that online currency is more secure ?
hey is there pictures and stuff on how the water mark looks like? Can someone link me up? But yeah seriously though guys. This is the first time I did some exchange online.
Um, Have you never seen cash before? Hold almost any bill up to the light and you will see a watermark. Usually a face or official seal of some type... Follow others advice and meet in public with friends. If you still don't feel comfortable, cancel the deal.
go to a public place where a good mount of people take someone with you and check the money before you give th ipod over
There are these pens you can mark the bills with and depending on the color of the mark determines whether the bills are real.
Wouldn't be suprised if your on the 8 o'clock news the next day tbh :/ Your pretty stupid for going ahead with this. If you do decide to go,take a few hence friends with u get the cash , kick the shit out of him after then sell it to me half price online Even better!
I don't think that people who browse facebook, are looking to scam people. So my advise is go and nothing will happen.
wrong. i was selling my PS2 on facebook and 5 different guy show interested. they all send in message saying they want to buy it rush and ask me for my address, phone number and stuff.. I check their email address with google and found that they were sending mass message to anyone who post in market place trying to get personal information
