Agreeing on Work & Payment
The deal is between you and the seller, so it is worth getting the basics in writing before any money changes hands A few clear messages now prevent most disagreements later
Important
Vendoralia never holds, processes, or refunds payments All money goes directly between you and the seller, so there is no Vendoralia balance, escrow, or chargeback to fall back on — agree on terms carefully
Agree on these before you pay
Pay in Steps, Not All at Once
Where you can, tie payments to progress — a deposit to start and the rest once the work is done and you are satisfied Paying everything upfront removes your only leverage if something goes wrong
Keep a Record
Keep your messages, the agreed quote, and any receipts If a question comes up later, a short written trail is far easier to rely on than memory
Best Practice
Prefer payment methods that leave a trace, like a bank transfer or a receipt Avoid sending large amounts in ways that cannot be tracked or recovered
