Being new(ish) to bitcoin, I've noticed it MUCH harder to sell products online and accept bitcoin as a form of payment. Paypal sales are steady and people tend to rather use paypal than bitcoin to buy things. (in my exp anyway)

I wish bitcoin could somehow figure a (buyer/seller protection) like paypal. It's alot of work sending items to escrows/ waiting for them to get the item/ then them sending item to buyer etc.

I may be totally out there on this,lol also sorry if i don't make much sense either. Sometimes its hard to type what i'm really thinking,lol

The problem I see surrounding buyer/seller protection is on whether does it work the way it is intended to be in the first place. It's more like a system that offer ways for people to abuse and manipulate things they want to. If you read forums, needless to say there are countless number of threads on how people actually get scammed despite having the so-called protection system in place.

So for me, it's about finding ways to conduct the business dealing and how to trade with caution because in the end, whether you are buying or selling with paypal or bitcoin, it won't turn out to be any different.
