Nothing inherently wrong with buying from a new member with no feedback. Your real mistake was to use Paypal gift. That's a no-no pointed by Fred and countless others here.
I agree and have sold/bought from newbies and Fmer's with very little or no feedback. 99% of those were what I refer to as "merchandisers only". i.e They B/S only....
There are also those here on B&S that go out of their way to "slam" sellers, slander and libel them, when they cant lowball an item or want to post derrogatory remarks about a F/S item.
That has increased 100%, though somewhat rare, here and the FM'ers on B&S are easy to pick out.
A quick note to Fred and the remarks and poster were removed.
I DONOT do PP Gift and I also check their profiles through various FREE investigative search engines.
I always ask for references and if it doesn't feel good, I don't do it!
That being said, I have been scammed 2x's here on FM..not on the actual body/lense but on the accy's that come with it.
Just do your homework.
