As one noted just a few hours ago, we've got a new Marketplace Scammer working TH.

He responded to my WTB (Want To Buy) ad about a Yamaha tuning slide by MK. He had pics - but could not explain how the slide worked for him.

ALSO: He would take Apple Pay, Venmo, and a few others, BUT NOT PAYPAL.
Paypal, if used as intended, with the seller paying a few percentage points, will protect you to a degree from scam. I think it's more challening with the other pay options, which is why he'd take so many pays... But not PayPal.

I enjoy TH very much, and really like the Marketplace. No taxes, no percentage taken against your sale price, knowledgeable folks to buy from and sell to... We've just got to watch for these scam artists. kyletgoup has a good ad about this guy in the Marketplace now, so do beware.

Take care all!
