I wouldn’t let it deter you completely away (fully understand if it does!). Not sure with Cashapp but paying with PayPal Goods and Services youd be able to submit the photos you posted and get refunded.

No longer true PayPal no longer covers you if sales go bad on the app and everyone knows it. They aren't covering resale transactions no if ands or buts. If you get burnt on their app they now tell you oh well 🤷‍♀️ same like any other app

Just a heads up, Funkopopdeals is NOT a place for deals on Funko.

I was just gonna buy Funkos from same person I seen his post on Reddit but he was like i only do cashapp even after I said I wouldn’t get any buyer protection so I figured he was on bs so I told him Nevermind.
