Hello,

1st time seller- My teenaged daughter has found a buyer for her extra concert tickets. The teen buyer wants to use her Dad's Paypal.  How do i securely charge them?  Should i create an invoice? What info should i give out.  Many thanks!!!

She is smart.  She wants her dad to take the risk of loss and the risk of any problems with a PayPal account.

Best to review PayPal policies for buyer and seller protection.  Click on Legal at the bottom of the page and then carefully, very carefully, review and understand the policies.

PayPal will protect seller in case items are delivered with tracking showing delivery and buyer claims non- receipt.

That's about the limit of seller protection.  Seller is NOT protected from disputes were buyer claims tickets are not valid.  Seller will have NO PROOF that tickets are valid.  Buyer could win dispute and return tickets, forcing a refund.  Now you have unusable tickets.

Ticket sales/purchase are very high risk of fraud.
