This Forum has nothing to do with transaction. TDF just provides the platform.

Read this thread *www.thinkdigit.com/forum/bazaar/143977-bazaar-section-rules-updated.html

Generally buyer and seller if interested contacts each other and then pays by NEFT(in case of diff. cities), otherwise if seller has no problem and buyer agrees to bear the cost, ebay listing can be done, otherwise a meetup if in same cities.

In case of diff. cities after receiving the payment seller ships the item to buyer's address.

So TDF just provides the platform for the deal, and upon showing interest, everything becomes personal to seller and buyer, TDF has nothing to do after that.

As TDF provides the platform, TDF imposed some rules to minimize the fradulation as much as possible.

As krishnandu said, TDF is simply a convenient medium for sellers and buyers to know about each other. It's not like eBay where the site manages and controls the buying process and also provides insurance against fraud.

There's always some risk in personal deals between people who have never met each other. But judging from remarks made in the forum, most deals are completed satisfactorily (although there seems to be an occasional bad deal). Exchange some communications with the other party and try to judge if he's reliable. Also see if he has received a feedback in the Trader Feedback Thread.

As for payment, there's no rigid rule. Some sellers ask for pre-payment. Some are satisfied with receiving payment after the buyer has received the item.

As an example, when I bought something from avichandana20000 a couple of weeks ago, we worked out the details by email. After that, he went to DTDC but they wanted Rs.605 as shipping charge. He called me from the DTDC office and I said that it was way too much and that they were probably trying to cheat him.

I asked him to try Speed Post. SP quoted Rs.167 and I said that that was OK. He then booked the packages and sent me a scanned copy of the Speed Post receipt. Then I transferred the price of the items plus the shipping cost into his account by online transfer.

You can view details about that sale -

Of course, this is just one way of doing a transaction. It all depends on what the seller and buyer agree to between themselves.

I could not opend the page see error

"sumesara, you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:

Your user account may not have sufficient privileges to access this page. Are you trying to edit someone else's post, access administrative features or some other privileged system?
If you are trying to post, the administrator may have disabled your account, or it may be awaiting activation.

What is the problem.....

Handle ID = Your TDF Username. (In your case it's sumesara)

And if someone doesn't have camera and can't even manage one, he/she is not eligible for selling at TDF.

Handle ID = the alias. Like mine is 'asingh'.

If you cannot click images and upload, and still create a deal thread. It will be thrashed, without retrieval option.

This thread has served it's purpose.

Also, search Community Discussions about Paypal query, if you can't find one, create a thread there.
