I thought to myself, what if I could ask the universe for this light at a price I could afford? In this case the universe is the internet, and I’m a software engineer, so I figured I can build a website to do this. To deal with the safety concerns of buying stuff online, I figure that buying from friends and family in your social network is probably safe, since you trust them enough to be in your social network in the first place. Also, buying locally will help you do more in person transactions where you get the goods, they get the cash. For longer distance deals, use paypal, its safe, trusted, and get references. Also, get added as a friend to the sellers facebook account and see if you like their social identity, if they seem “nice” continue with the transaction, if not find another seller that seems more your “type” of seller. |
