Re: Researching Cards

Someone brought up credit unions... Here's a good mean to find what is local to you.

I was wondering how you had found out about "Payboo" Smiley Wink

 

at first I thought it was a Service to Pay;

 

boo (bo͞o)

a. A boyfriend or girlfriend.
b. A spouse.


I heard about it here first. There was a pretty decently sized thread that was making fun of the name. 

I would have known anyway though because B&H pushes it hard so when I got the deal alert for the PS4 Pro from Slickdeals, I would have still seen people talking about the card in the comments and went for it.

Having The Card to Save on Tax is a PLus, I have bought a couple things from B&H in The Past. (Binoculars & Flashlights)

but not enough to Justify a New TL. I usually Buy off e bay out of state, (only from people that have a ton of Positive Feedback.)

i have saved $ales Tax on New Laptops. and a few other $500-$1000 items.

pretty solid Buyer protection policies,

especially if you use a Credit Card to fund PayPal payment. 3 tier Buyer Protection.,

1) e Bay

2) PayPal

3) Credit Card

 

also right now is is PayPal 5% Disco it Category. (Plus 5% Cash Back Match if your card is under 1 year age)

I’ll admit that the app was a bit extra, especially since B&H only has to remit 4% for my tax district, but I don’t really regret it. I like B&H and I’ll probably use the card a few times a year since they tend to be competitive with Amazon but without 7.25% sales tax added. Plus I ran my Cash Magnet and SavorOne apps at the same time, snagging that sweet $10K SavorOne I probably wouldn’t have even tried for otherwise. 

I avoid eBay most of the time. I just don’t like the idea that I may have to deal with the hassle of returning something or filing claims and all that. I generally buy my gaming consoles on eBay though. They’re items that have a rather low defect rate so I don’t tend to be that concerned about having to return them.
