    Sounds over complicated to me. I'm skipping it.

    if you have an already verified paypal account it takes literally about 1 minute to login to paypal and become a verified member. If you dont have a verified paypal account though it might be harder, IDK, I have paypal and it took me no time at all to become "verified". And you need to be verified to use the classifieds I think, in case you planned on doing that.

    I'm still confused, if you are a "seller" then being verified makes sense to me. If you are looking to buy something (what the seller wants) why would you limit the buyers access to what the sellers are selling??? That is a whole nother process handled by paypal, ebay, etc...
    I've been into internet marketing since 1999. Never seen a forum do this before.
    Hey we all learn new things every day
    BTW I am not a seller, yet...

    Thanks ambeck22, I'm still not clear how limiting the buyers access to the seller eliminates fraud. Unless we are going way back and taking someones promise to pay. Again, as a seller you get your payment through the net. Verify the sellers, YES!
    Verify the buyers, WHY? Unless e-cigarette-forum.com is having issues with their buyers. Still really confused. Verify the sellers YES!
    The buyers WHY???

    Not sure exactly why for the buyers but maybe because ECF doesnt differentiate between the buyers/sellers. A buyer today becomes a seller tomorrow. also, maybe a buyer buys something off the classies, pays thru some online method , waits for shipping confirm, then cancels payment? only real thing I can think off why buyers also need verification.

    This forum is the best, bar none. I've learned so much here, looking forward to learning more. (VAPE BREAK)
    Seriously, I'm gonna verify me right now. I just don't get how verifying everyone to see the sellers will work.
    Like I said, I've been doing internet marketing since 1999 things change...

    I will not give paypal my banking info.I have a lot I could sell but I guess I will have to keep them or throw them away.Maybe I am being foolish but I do not want to go through the hassle if someone at paypal sells my banking info.
