Read the question that the OP asked. He is talking about shipping before payment.
Have you ever bought anything on line that you did not have to pay for before the item was shipped? If so please clue me in!
why are sellers to be trusted, but buyers are not?
We buy and sell on sites like this so there is an exchange of 2 things that have an agreed upon equal value
in all cases, the seller must be trusted to send the item as described, but the buyer is not trusted to send the money. And more and more, sellers are insisting to be paid in ways that have no recourse for the buyer, like PayPal F&F, Venmo, etc.
The item and the money are of equal value.. so why is one party to be trusted and the other is not? Why does the seller always insist on waiting to get paid before they ship? Why doesn’t the buyer insisting on getting the item before they will pay for it?
I have hundreds of perfect feedback going back over 20 years on multiple platforms, but the seller always insists I pay them first even if they have much, much less feedback. Why should I trust them if they don't trust me?
just curious
