HailPalpatine Posted September 21, 2011 Report Posted September 21, 2011 New member here, just wanted to know some tips/protocols for buying armor and accessories on this site. PM first, then get an email address? Also, whats the safest way to go about payment? Quote
ZeroRoom[TK] Posted September 21, 2011 Report Posted September 21, 2011 PM first, then get an email address? You got it. As for payment, PayPal is always the safest way to pay on the net. Quote
SamJ[501st] Posted September 21, 2011 Report Posted September 21, 2011 (edited) As Lucas said PayPal is great just be mindful of the time limit to file a claim. I think it's 45 days at the minute so if you don't have your stuff by the 44th day put in a claim, remember it's your money and you've got to take care of it no matter how good a deal is. Also, if you can, make sure you put it on a credit card that way if PP don't refund you you can always try with the bank. Of course buying direct from an armour maker is a bit different and delays can happen, which is why it's best to stick to the vetted makers as that way you can be sure of getting what you paid for no matter how long it takes.

TrooperVenger Posted September 21, 2011 Report Posted September 21, 2011 If you can, pay via credit card with paypal. Gives you an extra bit of security, but if you buy from one of the armourers here you won't get ripped off. Quote
Daetrin[Admin] Posted September 21, 2011 Report Posted September 21, 2011 All the makers we have listed on the "where to buy" thread have proven themselves numerous times to be reliable, so there should be no issue there. If you do have an issue or question with a particular maker or prop seller, feel free to post and get opinions first hand. Quote
HailPalpatine Posted September 21, 2011 Author Report Posted September 21, 2011 So if someone on here has 13 or so pages worth of good feed back on rebelscum, its a safe bet they'll deliver with say, a postal money order? Thanks Quote
TK bondservnt[501st] Posted September 21, 2011 Report Posted September 21, 2011 I would purchase only with paypal and all the vetted sellers on this site have the RULES to follow: only items on hand and ready to ship. this assures that everyone gets fast and reliable sales! Quote
birdfeed Posted September 23, 2011 Report Posted September 23, 2011 I'll vouch for the credit card option as well... just in case. No experience purchasing on these forums though. Quote
TrooperVenger Posted September 23, 2011 Report Posted September 23, 2011 I've bought a few little bits and pieces from a few people here. Gloves from Karin, Clips from Jesse, ears from John Danter and some ab plate buttons from....Err I forgot who it was (Sorry). So I'd not worry too much about being ripped off. Quote
TK-2126_MD[TK] Posted September 24, 2011 Report Posted September 24, 2011 I would worry more of getting to known what and who first. safer to get the lay of the land/forum first. no need to rush buy. Quote
