I've done a hundred gift transactions and never had a glitch on this site. This is, however, probably the only site I would feel comfortable doing so regularly save for some low dollar transactions or members I know well. I also have common sense and if my gut tells me to protect myself I do so. There is another board I frequent that has strict rules against gift transactions, which I amount to: "you're not smart enough to make sound decisions." If I pay gift and get burned I have no one to blame but myself and I accept that risk.
