Hey all I was just approached to do a cash for green trade, me to pay them . I was told it was a rule here on this forum that everyone with the lower TR must pay up front for all trades, is that the case?

Help please

Yes. You can confirm this by reading the rules...

well i do see in the rules g4g yet I fail to see the pay for cash. Having this is a rule sure seems to encourage and support the scammers.

No worries, CG. She's just a little confused because a trader is telling her that people paying cash for greens have to pay first no matter what. Obviously this isn't the case. She was trying to find out more in the rules but got a little puuuuuuuuurplexed.

For the record, cash for greens falls under the same rules as green for greens.

Thanks for taking the time to respond to a newbie HERE. So it can be said if a trader wants to pay another to green thier site then the one with the lower TR MUST pay UPFRONT the other trader.

Thanks 14320 for responding

Seems like one of you two (or both) is a bad communicator. Here's a post report he made concerning you.

I will admit to not knowing that a g4g and a trade for cash were the same. This is the only site I know of that insists a trader pay up front to have someone green for them.Here is a quote of what this trader said and they did say I had to pay upfront

(8/23/2008 4:48:27 PM): LOL. Uh, Barb, there are different types of trades Cash for Referral, Green for Green and Other. The rule applies to all types of trades. For example, if you have lower TR and engage in a G4G trade then you green first. If you have lower TR and engage in a Cash for Referral trade you pay upfront first. Surprising you didn't know that. But ask a mod if you don't believe me. Anyway, I have a trade to complete. Can't talk right now

Since when did paying upfront become a requirement. I always was under the impression it was a Suggestion but two traders were able to negotiate whatever they wanted?????

People rarely follow the TR rules these days.
