This article will help everyone out there buy ffxiv gil safely and easily. So, I plan on sharing some of the wisdom I've found useful when I first started buying my gil.
For starters, do your research. As anyone in customer service will tell you, one of the most frustrating things in the world for a customer is expecting one thing out of a company and getting something entirely different. Fine print is a killer in the service industry and reading it can make or break a deal. Always read up on a company before you give them your money. At the very least, google their url to see what kinds of reviews come up. It's easy enough for them to hype themselves on their site, but it's the outside sources that will get you the most accurate picture. Bigger outfits, like FF14gils.com, even have rankings with Bizrate and others, which can help you narrow your search.
Another thing to consider is whether or not they offer a money-back guarantee. Most sites worth their salt do (again FF14gils.com comes to mind) because it lets the customer know that they will do their utmost to make sure the transaction is safe, both for your purchase and for your account.
Something that gets looked over these days is secure connections. One of the easiest ways to spot a scam is their payment methods. Instead of taking credit cards or paypal, they'll insist on other methods that can't be tracked or reversed without an act of Congress, like money orders or Western Union. Avoid places like this at all costs.
Another thing that seems obvious but sometimes just isn't is keeping quiet about it. Great deals always make me happy, and I'm willing to crow about them to everyone EXCEPT when I'm using open chat. The last thing I need is a GM to pay attention or another player take offence to what I'm doing and write me up. As cool as buying your gil is, keep it to yourself.
Well, that got longer than I intended. I hope it helps, though.
