Highlights from this day
- nordic_price_nils — while im here on a small order the fee can be a meaningful fraction. on a large one the discount wins easily 21:41
- abdo_two_inch — the room holds no money, brokers nothing, and runs no escrow. that has never moved 22:48
- ida_injects — i keep every transaction reference in a note with the order. it has been useful twice 22:49
no chargebacks
do the fee maths
do not send a test payment to prove anything to anyone. that is a pattern, not a precaution
a bank transfer leaves a paper trail and no recourse. people should know both halves of that
refunds do happen and they are slow and awkward. do not count on one, still working it out
triple check it
ok so invoice says £94 and my total came out different, whos wrong
keep the reference
*Medutest not the other one
polite message usually fixes it

quick one a wrong network transfer is gone. nobody can get it back for you and nobody here will try
update from 1 months ago: fees are lower than they were and the discount maths has changed
a stablecoin while the order is pending removes one variable you do not need

invoice mismatches happen. check the total against what you actually sent, not against what you meant to send
check the total
thats a scam pattern

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

check the first four and the last four characters of the address. every single time, no exceptions
do you keep the transaction reference and for how long
