slightly off topic but nobody can verify an address belongs to who you think it does. that is the actual problem with all of this

the room holds no money, brokers nothing, and runs no escrow. that has never moved
while im here coming back after 1 months, has anything changed on fees
thats a scam pattern
a stablecoin while the order is pending removes one variable you do not need, ill dig out the number
there are no chargebacks here. that is the trade you are making and it should be a conscious one
polite message usually fixes it
update from 14 months ago: fees are lower than they were and the discount maths has changed
unrelated but do not send a test payment to prove anything to anyone. that is a pattern, not a precaution
the mods stop escrow conversations immediately and they are right to
on a small order the fee can be a meaningful fraction. on a large one the discount wins easily
check the total
check first and last four
do the fee maths

invoice mismatches happen. check the total against what you actually sent, not against what you meant to send
a bank transfer leaves a paper trail and no recourse. people should know both halves of that
check the first four and the last four characters of the address. every single time, no exceptions
paying in two parts is sometimes offered and it does not reduce your risk, it splits it
refunds do happen and they are slow and awkward. do not count on one, someone check my working
keep the reference
triple check it

is there a way to verify an address belongs to who you think it does
if you are asked to pay a second time because the first "did not clear", stop and post it in the scam channel

whats a reasonable network fee to accept
i have had a payment confirm and the order not update for two days. it resolved with one polite message
for the archive is the ten percent crypto discount standard everywhere now
