wait for confirmations
do you check the whole address or just the ends
discount is standard now
if you are asked to pay a second time because the first "did not clear", stop and post it in the scam channel
do not send a test payment to prove anything to anyone. that is a pattern, not a precaution
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

a bank transfer leaves a paper trail and no recourse. people should know both halves of that
the mods stop escrow conversations immediately and they are right to
Channel stats, last 30 days: 12 messages from 54 members.
the room holds no money, brokers nothing, and runs no escrow. that has never moved
refunds do happen and they are slow and awkward. do not count on one
a stablecoin while the order is pending removes one variable you do not need
update from 20 months ago: fees are lower than they were and the discount maths has changed
*Janoshik not the other one
has anyone been asked to pay a second time
there are no chargebacks here. that is the trade you are making and it should be a conscious one
work out the network fee before you take the ten percent discount. sometimes it eats it
keep the reference
check first and last four
[edited]is paying in two parts ever sensible
sent to the wrong network, is there any way back
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 mgi wait for the confirmations the supplier states and then one more before i chase anything, n of 1 obviously

on a small order the fee can be a meaningful fraction. on a large one the discount wins easily
polite message usually fixes it
anyone had a payment arrive and the order not update
is there any chargeback route at all
invoice mismatches happen. check the total against what you actually sent, not against what you meant to send

no chargebacks
is the ten percent crypto discount standard everywhere now
i keep every transaction reference in a note with the order. it has been useful twice, for what its worth

thats a scam pattern

i triple check the address and i have still had a moment of pure panic every single time
on a small order the fee can be a meaningful fraction. on a large one the discount wins easily
slightly off topic but the discount pattern is roughly ten percent almost everywhere and it is a real saving at volume
i have had a payment confirm and the order not update for two days. it resolved with one polite message
coming back after 4 months, has anything changed on fees
check the total
no escrow here

nobody can verify an address belongs to who you think it does. that is the actual problem with all of this
how many confirmations before a supplier usually marks it paid
if you are asked to pay a second time because the first "did not clear", stop and post it in the scam channel
