NEW REVERB DOT COM BULLSHIT!

I could give a fuck less what business gas my bank account. I just don't like the lack of security selling on Reverb regarding fraudulent terms and douchebags.

Reverb will fuck the seller all night long to protect the buyer, that is my issue.

Since forever it seems I've paid everything online except for my current car payment. The credit union actually charges me a fee to pay online. So to spite those fuckers I force them to handle a paper check every month.

Yes, your stance is more understandable. I'd still suggest just opening a separate checking account with your make and just move the money through that account. Despite how safe I know everything is, I still do that for PayPal and Reverb. It's piece of mind to know I can cut the cord at any point if something goes too bad.

Thanks for reading, man.

Yeah, I think that's what I've done. I don't even know what a checking account is, but as I mentioned earlier, I created a debit account specifically for online purchasing via PayPal, and that's all I've ever used online. No hassle at all to top it up when I walk to the shops to buy groceries... and pay the damned bills at the P.O.

Ehm, that's what Paypal does as well, so Reverb taking the direct Paypal payment to you as a seller out of the equation, technically doesn't ADD worries in that department.

The way I read into it and was in a chat with a representative, it takes away seller protection to a degree.

Black Helicopters seem to be everywhere these days...

Kind of a shame, but I've always found both to be shady, and would NEVER give either my bank account info, only credit cards, and only AMEX.
Anyways, nobody is buying guitars these days on these sites it seems! Go check the "sold listings in ebay for your fav brand, and I just keep seeing the same overpriced guitars on Reverb being listed continually.
Selling on forums requires building/maintaining a reputation which takes time, but is my personal favorite.
Selling difficulty has been going up for the past 2 years.

I sold over $5,000 worth of gear in April on Reverb. You just need to have gear that people want and price it appropriately. I also have stuff that has sat for awhile, and it's just things that are expensive and aren't popular. I don't think I've had a pedal sit on there for more than a week.

I sold an AxeFx 2 XL+ in about 24 hours on the Verb. Had it for sale locally for a week with nary a question...

I can’t find anything on reverb about the new policy
