I list my adverts at the price I wish to receive for the item. I then give people the option of paying that by gift or adding fees, their choice. I have a feedback thread to help them make that choice.
Some buyers like to save themselves an extra couple of quid, some like security. The choice is theirs..........................................
I think what Jim said above here makes perfect sense. Want protection pay for it. Dont want to pay, risk it or buy elsewhere.
Do sympathise with these guys who are worried about their money though, fact remains that of what must be hundreds of transactions, theres only been a tiny minority that have been trouble. The vast majority on here are good guys.
I do think that sending via recorded post for items over say £30 ish is sensible though. Protects the buyers money and the seller too from dishonest buyers claiming that their item never arived.
