Money recieving issue
 

I just got my Paypal account limited and am working on getting back in.

In the mean time, a customer that bought something from me before, now wants 50 pieces. It would be between $2700-$3000.

The problem is that I now have a lmited Paypal account and I would think that the large of a transfer into a new stealth account,(even not linked to ebay), would cause me to be limited very quickly.

My credit is bad and I am working on it but can't get a merchant account at this time.

I also can't afford to take the chance of almost $3000.00 getting locked up in some account comparable to paypal.

I really need part of the money to pay for the product, but I could afford to pull it out of my account if I know that I can pull the $3000 out in a couple of days.

Would a Post Office money order be better? Bank wire transfer?

I really would like to have this customers business as I think we will do some repeat business in the future.

Any thoughts?

For your customer that wants more products.... if he's emailing you directly, have him pay you directly. I would never have a transaction that large go through paypal.

I think the post office only has money orders up to 1000 USD. I would have him send you an electronic wire, or have him/her issue a certified check. This is a perfectly reasonable request for people requesting such a large order.


Don't be brainwashed into using paypal when you don't have to. I woke up one day and realized people still pay people without their being more people involved!
