Whats the best way to convince a ebay buyer to pay with paypal directly?

[newstart2]

So my accounts still have the 21 day hold, one even after 6 months..lol...so obviously it is much better to convince buyers to pay direct with paypal becuase i do not want to trust ebay/paypal with holding too much of my money at one time since you never know when you could be limited. So going about this is tricky because I know ebay reads the messages, so how do you guys approach them? Ask them for the email and discusss it that way...? any suggestions would be helpful. thanks

You want them to pay you direct to your p/p for stuff they have bought from you through e/b without using e/b checkout.

Are you serious?

This will get you suspended quicker than you can blink

Not all the buyers. just a few where the item is of high value and I do not want to wait 21 days. It's all about the waiting, I sell alot internationally and to not have the money for 21 days is risky for me.

Not half as risky as doing what you suggest.

Do you think e/b and p/p will not notice what your doing?

BTW p/p can and do hold funds from any scource if there are 'concerns' not just the ones from e/b sales

lower the price..but hard to recommend

yeah I really hate having to its just one of my pp's got limited recently and I got them money out the day before , and it was alot of money, if I had not gotten it out I would have been in trouble. So now the thought of having lots of pending transactions scares me. This whole stealth thing is a risk so whats not some more risks added to it, right?

The idea of stealth is to minimise the risk not add to it

Can I still get in trouble even if I am making contact for these sales through email and not the ebay message system?

So how do you think it's going to work?

[newstart2]

when they ask a question/make an offer I ask them for their email or phone number to discuss this further and then thats where the proposition is made..since it is off of ebays site do I risk any action being taken from them?

So what makes you think e/b won't suss what your doing and that p/p won't hold the payments?

[newstart2]

Agreed, definitely not a thing I will make a habit out of.
