the mods stop escrow conversations immediately and they are right to, i have it written down somewhere
is paying in two parts ever sensible

no chargebacks
right so how long do you wait before chasing an unconfirmed payment
if you are asked to pay a second time because the first "did not clear", stop and post it in the scam channel
triple check it
paying in two parts is sometimes offered and it does not reduce your risk, it splits it
thats a scam pattern
on a small order the fee can be a meaningful fraction. on a large one the discount wins easily

invoice says £94 and my total came out different, whos wrong
invoice mismatches happen. check the total against what you actually sent, not against what you meant to send
check the total
anyone had a payment arrive and the order not update
i triple check the address and i have still had a moment of pure panic every single time
keep the reference
a bank transfer leaves a paper trail and no recourse. people should know both halves of that
the discount pattern is roughly ten percent almost everywhere and it is a real saving at volume
work out the network fee before you take the ten percent discount. sometimes it eats it

is the ten percent crypto discount standard everywhere now
how many confirmations before a supplier usually marks it paid
is there any chargeback route at all

network fees were higher than the discount, has anyone done that maths
*Medutest not the other one
there are no chargebacks here. that is the trade you are making and it should be a conscious one
check first and last four

what happens if the price moves between invoice and payment
is a bank transfer ever an option and is it a bad idea
i have had a payment confirm and the order not update for two days. it resolved with one polite message
[edited]coming back to this a wrong network transfer is gone. nobody can get it back for you and nobody here will try
stablecoin or not while an order is pending
