Paxful is a great place to sell bitcoins!
Really? I think it's a great place to get scammed. There are plenty of buyers in paxful offering shady methods. There are so much paypal scams, fake gift cards, and other scammy modes of dealing there. The problem here is that you'll have to really be aware of scams. The best probably here is cash only or those that send money directly to you.
Sorry to hear about your experience. Such things can often take place on a P2P markets such as our site or any other site. Even a site like eBay would have huge problems of similar nature if it was not for PayPal's Charge back service, which Bitcoin does not have. We are doing our best to improve our members knowledge and have included a new 3 part tutorial guide that covers the basic on selling, placing orders as well as safety tips when dealing with people based on the different payment methods.
Please make sure you read over them before attempting to sell. Always educate yourself and learn about the risks. Our support team are always happy to give you tips as well if you are ever in doubt.
