anyone tried xoom.com ? looking for online money order processor
 

Anyone ever tried xoom.com? Its ebay approved and looks kinda like the original bidpay. Any other suggestions for online money order processors? I like the money orders b/c then no chargebacks and no bs...one that takes cc's for funding would be ideal...

I sign up for a account but haven't used it yet

It sounds interesting, is it like western union?

XOOM Your way to no sales......
 

XOOM your way to no sales... :rolleyes:
Seeing as everyone here knows that most buyers won't give an extra dime for the auction they won, especially after saving a ridiculous amount of money compared to buying it in a store. I do not think this will do well for sellers, but hey it is another option to give buyers.

It is actually a great way to take international payments instead of using paypal and honestly, most would use it to pay to get the item.

The other part though that has got me thinking is you can use paypal to pay for it. So in reality you can say to you take Paypal to pay for XOOM. Now on another note - how would that go thru paypal? Instant transfer or credit card and what if the buer disputed that charge with their credit card would you have to refund XOOM? UHM, Maybe I will test this out - Buy an item and pay with XOOM via paypal using a credit card. Then file a dispute with paypal and dispute it with my credit card company.
What do you think will happen?

Ok, I read the terms - They process as a cash advance and that your CC might charge you additional fees for this. It did not state though how it would go thru if you use paypal. Maybe I will try and see how by trying to use it. I will let you know.

I tried xoom 1 time...and they asked my customer what was he sending money for the customer said a ebay item...xoom told them to log into paypal and pay for it there. My customer even wrote me back to tell me what they said. They never processed the order and refunded his money but like I said I only tried once but that 1 time was a failed attempt.
