friends and family only?

I just read 2 bad trade posts. When you decide to buy from someone who will only accept "friends and family" for payment, you're flipping a coin. Anyone that wants to send me money, can do so- kevinkoffel@gmail.com, I may or may not send you something, I've got some decent deadstock...
and I only accept friends and family. I'm sorry you got ripped off, but while we are all cordial here in the community, none of you are my family,
the rest are online contacts who I'll probably never meet. One of the reasons Paypal keeps tweaking their platform to charge sellers more money,
is the practice of sellers and buyers circumventing the good faith PayPal gives to people who send money to people they actually know.
Frankly, I don't understand this ripping off a few people for 50 bucks or even a hundred, it's not like you're going to retire on that.
I buy using "friends and family" from people I trust through past business or an unblemished presence on the platform, other than that-
it's goods and services, and if that's a problem, I'll just buy lottery tickets.
