Default What do you think about the payments---Western union

Dear all,

For the international trade. there are many payments term. there are payments method below.

1. Paypal( 3.9% fees) get the money at once,withdraw in 3-5 days
2.Western union get the money in 1 hour wordwide
3.Bank transfer get the money in 5-7 work day.
4.wire transfer
5.Moneybooker
6.Alipay

I think some guys use PAYPAL and Wertern union often.

Which payments method is the best for both Seller and buyer?

Please give your own mind free here

Paypal best for buyer because you can request back, but for seller, you can get scammed. Bank transfer.. the laws behind u.

How is Escrow.com any safer than Paypal?

You are still relying on the other person to tell the truth. If seller sends empty box. What happens? If buyer falsely claims he recieves empty box. What happens?

These are why Escrow payments are not as safe as you think i've heard many a horror story put it this way we wouldn't allow a buyer to pay us using Escrow no way never.
