Perks of FE for the buyer

Are there really any positives for the buyer to go through with FE? Other then maybe getting hooked up for FEing but there's really no promises that you'll be taken care of.

I understand the vendor enjoying the perks of FE. They know that you aren't trying to scam them and they can take their funds to another wallet.

I am not against using FE, I actually do it if I've used the vendor before just out of respect and in hopes they will maybe move faster to the mailbox. Lol. Just wondering what your thoughts were on the subject.

If a market exits, you have a better chance of actually receiving your order

Edit- Also sone vendors have both FE and Escrow with Escrow having a higher cost. If a vendor has both I usually FE because I am cheap

NO

I don't FE because we have Escrow for a reason. What happens if there's a miscommunication and your vendor doesn't want to set things straight with the order even though you've successfully ordered from them before.

There's basically two reasons

  1. Higher chance to get order if market exits

  2. Seller might throw in extras

Ive FE'd for a vendor with a good reputation and stellar feedback and ended up getting fucked anyway,its too easy not to give a shit about your order after they already got your coin,when youre money is in escrow they are way more motivated to get your shit to you,I will never FE again...

I think the most substantial perk was already said, besides that, don't see much.

Well if a market goes down and the vendor has the funds they usually still send the pack, where as with escrow they are not gonna mail a pack they know they will not get paid for
