thats gone sorry
paying in two parts is sometimes offered and it does not reduce your risk, it splits it, anyway
is the ten percent crypto discount standard everywhere now
i triple check the address and i have still had a moment of pure panic every single time
do you keep the transaction reference and for how long
if you are asked to pay a second time because the first "did not clear", stop and post it in the scam channel

i wait for the confirmations the supplier states and then one more before i chase anything
is paying in two parts ever sensible
what happens if the price moves between invoice and payment
invoice mismatches happen. check the total against what you actually sent, not against what you meant to send

check the total
triple check it
polite message usually fixes it
no escrow here
do not send a test payment to prove anything to anyone. that is a pattern, not a precaution
check first and last four
keep the reference

the room holds no money, brokers nothing, and runs no escrow. that has never moved
check the first four and the last four characters of the address. every single time, no exceptions
anyone had a payment arrive and the order not update
i have had a payment confirm and the order not update for two days. it resolved with one polite message, take that with a pinch of salt
thats a scam pattern

discount is standard now
invoice says $120 and my total came out different, whos wrong
i keep every transaction reference in a note with the order. it has been useful twice, ask me again in a month
there are no chargebacks here. that is the trade you are making and it should be a conscious one
on a small order the fee can be a meaningful fraction. on a large one the discount wins easily

the mods stop escrow conversations immediately and they are right to
