No I'd use PayPal or the many methods of doing it safer that I've already mentioned. No wonder scammers succeed with idiots like you around.

Just saying.

Who's to say I've been scammed before?

I am not talking about something worth $5

When I sell something I have communications with the buyer, they have my phone and email but I get the payment first.

Buying on eBAy , check their rating and I use PayPal.

Private buys, I want as much info as I can get, phone and email a must,not just text, I will call them first. I would think everyone wants to be paid before sending items.

BUT I guess there is still a chance of being scammed but it helps to check what you can.

I would think your Bank would have a look at this type of thing. I got scammed through an ATM for $1800 and the bank sorted it and I was reimbursed and having an account # should make it easy :)

Additionally, get a copy of their driver's licence and or landline number.

As for Paypal, as a buyer I have never had a problem with it. But as a seller, to put it simply, I wil NEVER use it due to the simple fact that it can be used as a very easy way to rip-off sellers.

I know of plenty of cases where this has happened, and I am also sure there are "professionals" out there using it to 'buy' free items.

Hopefully this gets sorted out soon enough.

      We're arguing semantics. I am saying 45 accel and a 55 deccel ramp are "2 ways". Even a 45 degree ramp and an 89 degree ramp is "2 ways", because it is literally... two ways. The cusco 55/30 ramp is a 2 way. It's two ways. I get it though - in normal nomenclature a "2 way" would be 45/45 or 55/55 or 60/60 i.e the same locking in both directions. And something like 45/65 would be considered "1.5 way". I would then say if we're getting into the nitty gritty then every locking diff is a "2 way" diff and we should not speak in 1.5, or 2 ways but ramp angles instead. Which ofc if one of those ramp angles is 90deg, that side is not doing any locking. :p So Nismo don't obviously sell 3 things. The fact of the matter that they only sell two items really goes to show that there's a 2 way and a "1,5 way" which is really a 1 way. I believe the actual lockup for the 'adjustability' of the GT pro is really just setting preload for when the ramps actually start locking up. It's not changing how much 'wayness' there is. It is (somehow) horribly explained. People just buy whatever diff and go "locks up good bruh" and that's what ends up on socials forever.

      No, you're wrong, and you've always been wrong about this. The Nismo has 2 sets of openings. One is a real 2-way, and the other is a 1-way. There is no 1.5-way possible with the ramps that they offer. A real 1.5-way does exist. That Cusco stuff I posted is a prime example. If the forward drive ramps are, say 55°, and the overrun ramps are, say, 30°, then you will get about half as much LSD effect on overrun than you do on drive. It is real, it realy works. OK, you're slightly right. The Nismo has 55° and 45° ramps on the 2-way, so it does offer less LSD effect on overrun. But, I think that just means that they've (probably) sensibly established that you do not want actually equal LSD effect on overrun. You just want "quite a lot, but not quite as much as the drive LSD effect".
