Let's begin

  I have watched many an auction for an MScharacter on ebay go by. And i've learned a few things about buying and selling. Let's begin with the former when buying a character if the deal seems too good to be true, well it probably is. I.E. a recent scammer by the name of pyew223 was selling a lvl 125 Dragon knight with 300+ million mesos for a buy it now price of $400-$450 (he did this a couple of times). As you may know the buyers decided to get a refund by taking their dispute to paypal well that's where they really got screwed, you see paypal cannot do it's usual up to $1,000 refund for intangible goods such as an MS character they can only do an ebay standard purchase refund for up to $200. Needless to say this scammer did get banned but still left some very unhappy ppl out of $200. To avoid Scams like this I made some handy tips.

1. As seen above if it's too good to be true avoid it.

2. Try to avoid buying things above $200 unless you've done a thorough review of the seller's feedback and made sure they've been around for a while.

3. Make sure they've done some maple selling before or at least have sold something if you want to be extra cautious.

4. ALWAYS READ THE DESCRIPTION! Make sure you are getting full control of the account i.e. NX id, NX p/w, Last name, Secret question and answer, email address(opt), email p/w(opt), country, birthdate, and pin code. Otherwise the seller may take their account back.

5. Read the skills carefully you don't want to end up with some very poorly made character.

6. Make sure that the name is appropriate you don't wanna get banned.

Now for sellers.

1.Make sure your providing all of the info listed in buyers 4.

2. Protect your char's identity you dont want to be reported by a wizet employee or jealous mapler and get banned. i.e. cross out your name, exp, make outfit different than the one that appears on MS ranking system.

3.Cancel bids from potential unpaying buyers i.e. recent ebayers or multiple negative feedback.

Well that's all for now happy ebaying!
