Im working on a deal to sell one of my characters for isk but I dont want to get ripped off. the buyer does not want to pay untill i give him the character and I dont want to give him the character untill i get payed. how is this usually worked out and if I do get ripped of can i petition to get the isk or character back?
thanx for the help.

Edited by: Xinity on 04/05/2005 01:22:31 Use a third party to hold the isk until the char has been transfered.
Also, some say that ccp covers char trades, while other say they don't so I don't really know about that, but since you pay real money to transfer it I'm pretty sure they will do something about it if the deal goes sour.
But do use a third party. a trusted corp/player that hold the FULL amount until the char has appeared on the buyers account
Edit: corrected some spelling. ----------

if they take the isk or give you some other character the gms will replace your isk

Way should work
They pay all isk up front which they are covered under CCP rules on char selling for isk
You then transfer char
They can view char on my char info but can not sign on that char until DT next day

Not as that character. You can see the character on your login screen as soon as it's transfered, however, trying to log on with that character will result in it saying "Entering game as "xxxx"...failed"
You can't log on untill after the next downtime. ___________________________________________

You both right 8)
No, you can not log the char until next downtime but it is a bug rather than a feature. After petition you could log him on.

i bought char like 20d ago... could not log him till dt... but it is not really an issue... char trade is covered by ccp, bannable offence and i guess there were not really much scams with those.(and chatlogs are visible to ccp, if they actually want to check something)

It would be nice to have confirmed what CCP's stance on character transfers is, with the details included in the sticky on the sell orders forum (hint hint ).

Edited by: Beldaws on 04/05/2005 11:19:50 I recently paid someone isk for their character and the person failed to transfer the character.
I petitioned as an exploit of the character transfer procedure and CCP extracted the money from the alt's main character and returned the money to me before the end of the day.
They seem to take abuse of this very seriously. I guess they are making too much money on these transfers to have scammers ruin it.
EDIT: Oh yea, just make sure to capture the chat log to back up your claim. Also, when you transfer the money add a comment to the transaction, 'Payment for transfer of character xxxxxxxxxx'.

Whichever way the transfer is conducted, CCP take a hard line on character scammers.

I recently had a character transfer (well 2).
The first one was docked and was instant for logging on :)
My second now he was in space and was getting that failed ot login screen. The only way to fix this as one of the GM's helped me out is to move you to a new region or wait til downtime. The GM moved my character and put it in a region/system I selected that was near by, and thank him for that, but I guess GM's do not have to do this guess he was feeling nice :) --------------------------------------------------- Ummm ya.... |

It can be transferred to an empty slot on your existing account.
