do you keep the transaction reference and for how long
network fees were higher than the discount, has anyone done that maths
work out the network fee before you take the ten percent discount. sometimes it eats it
paying in two parts is sometimes offered and it does not reduce your risk, it splits it
quick one whats a reasonable network fee to accept
slightly off topic but is the ten percent crypto discount standard everywhere now
is there any chargeback route at all
update from 5 months ago: fees are lower than they were and the discount maths has changed
do the fee maths
i triple check the address and i have still had a moment of pure panic every single time
option A: 5 x 10mg @ 38 + 25 ship = 215 / 50mg = 4.30 per mg
option B: 5 x 10mg @ 34 + 45 ship = 215 / 50mg = 4.30 per mg
option C: 10 x 10mg @ 32 + 25 ship = 345 / 100mg = 3.45 per mgDigest for the week of 2024-04-13 has been published.
how long do you wait before chasing an unconfirmed payment
check the first four and the last four characters of the address. every single time, no exceptions
*VendorInvestigate not the other one
sorry to jump in i wait for the confirmations the supplier states and then one more before i chase anything, someone check my working
keep the reference
the mods stop escrow conversations immediately and they are right to
triple check it
i have had a payment confirm and the order not update for two days. it resolved with one polite message
is a bank transfer ever an option and is it a bad idea
if you are asked to pay a second time because the first "did not clear", stop and post it in the scam channel
the discount pattern is roughly ten percent almost everywhere and it is a real saving at volume
there are no chargebacks here. that is the trade you are making and it should be a conscious one
slightly off topic but do you check the whole address or just the ends
do not send a test payment to prove anything to anyone. that is a pattern, not a precaution
polite message usually fixes it
has anyone been asked to pay a second time
coming back to this the room holds no money, brokers nothing, and runs no escrow. that has never moved
there are no chargebacks here. that is the trade you are making and it should be a conscious one
check the first four and the last four characters of the address. every single time, no exceptions
stablecoin while pending
is paying in two parts ever sensible
on a small order the fee can be a meaningful fraction. on a large one the discount wins easily
