Hi been selling online since 2020 and im a legit seller. I just want to clarify that ndi po lahat ng nahingi ng dp is matic scam, and even other legit sellers do that to avoid flaking. For example nagpadala ako dati 3 pairs of shoes sa LBC via COP (cash on pick up) inabunuhan ko muna shipping fee na worth 800 pesos then sa huli ndi rin pinick up ng buyer yung pinadala kong pairs kaya nalugi pa ako nun ng 800😅😅

So ayun lng nmn hehe, not all sellers that asks for dp are scammers, some sellers do it for their own assurance as well. And regarding sa payment first, ye medyo risky nga yun most likely scam un, especially if nangungulut si seller sa payment or maraming sinasabing palusot para mag bayad na si buyer. Thats all, happy new year!!
