Selling A Domain To Someone In Vietnam

December 6, 2010

I have an offer on one of my domains from someone in Vietnam.

However they want to buy the domain with a Paypal account.

In the past, I had an unwarranted $5,000+ chargeback from Paypal for services rendered because the buyer was a thief.

I’m not interested in repeating that mistake or anything like it again with Paypal.

In case you weren’t aware of it, virtually any transaction processed via Paypal remains refundable for what seems like an open ended and indefinite amount of time.

I use Escrow.com to sell domains and Vietnam is on their no fly list.

Surely Escrow.com doesn’t do business with people in the short list of countries below because the problems and risk far outweighed the reward.

As a bespoke specialized services business, I am not really set up to receive walk-ins off the street but based on the fact that Google is being asked for and then providing directions to my business – I guess a walk-in or two may be inevitable.
