It's nice that we can buy,sell and trade here again. As I was scrolling down through these posts I glanced to the left and saw in the list of site sponsors--BriarBid.

BriarBid is going to morph into something else. The domain will stay live and still be estate pipe related, but the business model is completely changing.
It never made a profit. The current (soon to be former) business model of BriarBid is closing several thousands of dollars in the red.

BriarBid now changes its sights onto BrideBid, the exciting new way to find your pipe-smoking soul-mate!

Thanks Kevin !
I understand that iam responsible for the deals i make here and no one else.
^^ +1 ^^
Kevin is gracious enough to let us do this. Let's not bust the forum for transactions gone awry. You want the added security blanket of filing complaints and stuff... you know where to go.

That is good news to hear. I hope all transactions work out properly for all parties involved.

Credit card transactions through Paypal are good because Paypal is a level of protection and you can always report it directly to the credit card as fraud should the item not come through properly and for some reason Paypal doesn't come through (I've never had to report anything to Paypal before, so I don't know how good they are). Sellers should never ship an item before the payment clears, all items shipped should be tracked and insured (costs very little extra). With that system even should the worst happen on either side of the transaction, both parties will be covered. Paypal will also help ensure that they are 18+ through the use of a credit or bank account, although this is not absolute I am pretty sure it is enough by law with internet sales.
While I trust most people here, as the past has showed, there are people here that will try to take advantage of you, so stay safe and use protection :rofl:
