Beware: Unscrupulous potential buyers

Another is for buyers demanding a "bank transfer" do NOT do a bank transfer if the transfer is demanded by the seller. Once you send the money you are SOL if it all goes bad.

If a buyer offers it, then the seller can accept. bank transfers are really a one way no going back method of payment. Safe for the recipient, risky for the sender.

And any new seller, or buyer is risky. Sorry for that, but the scammers are heading this way..
Any deal too good to be true IS.

Agon' needs some sort of 'verified' for sellers and buyers. Where they verify the location/residence of sellers and buyers.

Eliz- IIRC, Audiogon did have a verified member feature at one time. Maybe it went the way of the direct email feature.

There are many big turkeys out there.

Looks like you have to do a member search to see my status as verified and not just click my name.

I don't know if anyone really noticed but I did pay to be "verified" here. I don't remember what the charge was but I still have the "verified" on my user info. Just click my name and you should see it listed as my status. It would be a good idea to start this back up.
