There was a period, and maybe this will put a stop to it, where asking the buyer to use PAYPAL gift was VERY prevalent on these forums.
It was always a deal breaker for me.
For the reason that, as a seller, you should factor in ALL the costs of the item for sale, when posting the price.
On the occasions when I have gifted money, the costs have been just shifted to me!
Plus, the seller expects me to give up all my legal avenues to get my money back, to save THEM some money...?
NOT ON MY WATCH BUDDY!!!
