Safe way to sell?

[TidesGG]

So I've recently started using these boards to sell a game account I won't be using anymore.

But I'm a bit scared on how I can make things safe. I can provide all the details such as email, passwords etc but I'm concerned about how I'm going to get paid.

Using Paypal the buyer can start a chargeback up to 6 months after the payment. Is there a safe way to sell accounts at all?

I'm also concerned seeing how people keep asking for the "API" code of my account (The game in question is Guild Wars 2). If I provide said code anyone can see my account name. Can't I be reported to ANet that way and get banned?

I could not provide someone the API code unless they're serious about buying it. Screenshots should be enough to prove you own the account.

I recommend using one of your Trade Guardian services.

Bitcoin is an escrow service and the only services that provides chargeback protection, but the buyer must pay in bitcoin. Seller can withdraw via bitcoin or Paypal.

Can they chargeback if we use Trade Guardian services?

For the MM service, the buyer pays the seller directly. The MM holds the item.

Our MM services does not provide chargeback protection.

Trade Guardian service only makes sure you receive the item/money during the trade safely. We can't prevent users from charging back money or recovering the accounts after the trade is done.

Normally people that are willing to use middleman service aren't scammers and are looking for a smooth trade from both sides so they hire a middleman (Trade Guardian System)
