Standard Etiquette for MQ Sales

[Nilstoniakrath]

Haven't done one in a while, "back in the day" it was standard to pay once the transaction was complete. Discussed such a deal today twice and both sellers expected payment up front.

So curious what the current expectation is on such deals?

Pay on completion. Seller assumes ALL risk as seller is in complete control of the transaction. Doesn't matter how bad you want it, don't give in otherwise.

[PatChapp]

Thats how ive always done it as well,pay upon completion.

[Goregasmic]

Imagine paying hyphydruid first and getting your jboots mq sorted out 6 months later.

Yeah I would always pay on completion. Obviously, staff will reimburse you if they scam you. But if they mess up the MQ turn in (or the NPC was otherwise part of the way through the quest turn in queue because someone before it had messed up the MQ) the staff will not reimburse...so best to get payment after (if they are worried about that arrangement, just remind them that if you screw them over the staff will ban you really quickly and reimburse them).

In the interest of helping others avoid any misunderstandings, it was Steghr and Harnessing who wanted prepayment. I ended up getting the jboots by getting my name on the list for the AC camp and looted the ring myself, so it all worked out in the end for the best.

Well done!
