How to safely sell my fan page?

[LuMee]

Hi, I have a buyer who wants to buy my facebook fan page via paypal. How can I conduct this transaction as safely as possible? Is there a chance that I could get scammed via paypal somehow?

Yes i wouldnt do PayPal. Have him send you a money order, once it clears give him the page.

I have bought a number of pages. All done through PayPal with no problems. I usually send them half the money, they make me page manager then I send them the other half.

Well, buying is different then selling. I think they can send the money then reverse the transaction with a paypal dispute because it's virtual property or something like that. I could be wrong, that's why I'm asking the question. Any other advice guys?

Use escrow.com. Safe at both end.

If it's a virtual good and they start a dispute, they will lose. If it's anything and they pay with their CC through PayPal and then they file a dispute, they always win. I've been selling services online for years and I've been through it all. You should be safe, unless they're trying to get really sneaky and pay with a CC and then scam you by fraudulently filing a dispute (assuming you actually give them the page).

Yeah I would also recommend escrow.

Hmm, they wont agree to use Escrow. How secure is Western Union?

western union is as safe as bank transfer.. just get the money first

Who will send him the money first via WU? There's no way to get your money back.

I personally would make them pay you as it was a gift so they can not ask PayPal for a refund on the money since it was a gift.

Then make sure the cash is in PayPal as a gift and then transfer over the information so he can control the page.

That's good but you know. The buyer will be also sceptical about this. "..what if i send the money and don't get the page?"
I think escrow is eventually the best option

All the best

I would use escrow for both safety, buyer and seller.

Does facebook allow people to sell pages? In any case, don't do paypal.
