Security Center: Guidance for enjoying safe and secure Guaranteed Shopping:

 

Our goal is to make shopping online safe, and we do this by enabling great merchants to provide you Guaranteed Shopping.

 

When shopping online, it is important to know the following:

 

To verify a buySAFE Merchant:

• Click on the buySAFE Seal to validate its authenticity and verify a merchant's trustworthiness.
• A valid buySAFE Seal will link to a web page beginning with "www.buysafe.com".

 

What buySAFE is NOT:

• buySAFE is NOT a payment service, nor an escrow service.
• buySAFE does NOT collect or hold money from buyers in a transaction and we do not ask for or accept money or money orders from buyers.
• buySAFE's services are NOT available for items sold offline.
• buySAFE is NOT currently partnered with Craigslist or AutoTrader, so transactions on those marketplaces will NOT be guaranteed by buySAFE

 

What buySAFE IS:

• ONLY available from online stores who display a valid buySAFE Seal (click to verify) and eBay sellers who display a valid buySAFE Seal within an item listing.
• Available to all merchants who qualify, and to US and international buyers who purchase from any buySAFE Merchant

 

Important Note

If you encounter buySAFE's name, Seal, or services being misrepresented or in a manner inconsistent with the list above, please AVOID the transaction and immediately report it to buySAFE.

 

Again, always click to verify a buySAFE Seal to ensure an online store is legitimate.
