PSA/Common Sense Reminder--no Paypal Friends and Family for people you don't know
It's a bad idea. I got scammed. Not on this site--in fact I was probably too comfortable because I am so familiar with the community on this site that I forgot that not everyone online is great.
The goods and services charge is so low for the peace of mind that you get. Don't send F&F unless you are comfortable with letting that amount of money go. Watch your butts! |

I got burned on this myself a ~year ago. Bought a custom uke at a cost of ~$2K from a builder who I thought I had a pretty good rapport with. Wonderful uke and fantastic workmanship, attention to detail, tone, and playability - EXCEPT - iust several weeks in, it developed an unexpected structural problem. The azzwhole did not stand behind it - at all. Should have sprung for the extra ~4%....
Funny thing is that you can solicit opinions and advice online from other builders, and they pretty much all stick together. It's sick. And I mean NOT good....
