I have another question i hope this isn't consitered spamming cause i just made a form below and i am new i just hopeing i don't get in trouble. Anyways......I was looking through the trading form and i noticed some people don't like to go first and i personaly don't want to go first either is there any ways to tell who to trust? Is it okay to let people know i won't go first? The only proublem i have is being new and in being new i need to gain people trust in thinking i'm not going to try to steal there account/hard earned time and by telling people i won't go first isn't the way. I spend a VERY long time on neopets getting this far and i wouldn't want it stolen either. Can anyone give me advice any would be greatly appreciated~!

Well start with some small trades to get your rep up.

Also watch out for scammers, if they rush you or say anything iffy just dont do the trade.

People dont want to go first because they either have a valuable account they dont want stolen or they want an account signed over to them and run without doing their end of the deal. Please read through the 8 pages of articles we have written on safe trading.

I know i'm here to sell an account but i would suggest looking at the payment method. I'm going to accept paypal when i'm able to sell my account and i'm a verified paypal member. Not only that, if you look up my username in ebay i also have 100% positive feedback Smile

Paypal provides no security for sellers. Please use Western Union instead.

Yeah, start out with small accounts, but if you really don't want to go first, just say so. Anybody that's interested in what you have to sell should be able to deal with that or not trade you at all.

Work a deal or a plan with the person you're trading with. A compromise where everyone has to make small risks. That way any doubts will slowly vanish and you will develop a good relationship of trust with the member and that way trading will become much easier and more respected.

Yeah this is a common problem. And people don't go first. Due to the risk of Being scammed, But if i was going to sell something i'd personally go first because it is me that is sealling it... And if it was an account i'd make sure i have recover questions so there is no risk of getting scammed.
But yeah some people are paranoid because it's happend to them befor and dont wanant it to happen to them agian but TBH who can blaim them?? Wouldn't you be atleast abit worried

How ironic is it that half the posts are from scammers lol. I suggest you make them call you or you call them. Its easy to tell who is an a*****e and who isnt over the phone.
Hope this helps.
