Boothy:
....and cheers girls too!

ub7rm:
Is it not a bit risky paying for something as a 'gift' as it takes away the protection that paypall offers if the goods don't turn up?  Not suggesting thats a problem for Boothy's buyer but worth keeping in mind.

it is, but he said he was the seller so i thought it was ok :smiley:

Mandy:
It would be a risk to the buyer to send money as 'gift'. The seller could just do a runner, if he wanted to.

I only ever send as a gift if I trust the seller.

Absolutely, and I'm in no way casting aspersions but just in case anyone was reading this prior to making a transaction with someone they had absolutely no knowledge of I thought it was worth highlighting  :drinking:
