PayPal Friends & Family listings. Why is this becoming so common?


I think most sellers now realize they are not going to have a taxable profit. 

The F&F listings at market price don't seem to sell. 

It seems like buyers demand around a 20% discount to take on the added risk of F&F. 

I'm really just curious to hear what buyers & sellers think of this practice.

@lalitk BTW, PayPal protection is worthless! I never relied on them to do right by seller or buyer. 

Maybe this is true sometimes.  I sold an LP on Discogs.com, and the buyer returned a different copy as if it were the one I sold him.  I marshalled all the photographic and messaging evidence I could, and PayPal supported me in the dispute.
