I bought a 450miner/herb hunter off of PA from some Panther101 guy, was about 75 bucks for the level 80 hunter (good price I thought), after they "verified" the account was all good and stuff, they emailed me off the account information for me to check out. I logged into my .net account and the thing had NO WoW account attached to it, but conveniently had SC2 and WC3..
Top that off the seller spoke the poorest english ever, and PA wouldnt handle it for me and left it up to me to decipher his poor language skills, after a day or so I managed to have him give me a 450 mining/skinning warrior that was "worth" 10 dollars more (not to me, because I wanted mining/herbalism but he didnt have another toon with it), but to my dismay the character wasnt as described again.. and had no epic flying. Once I gave that dude a negative feedback he decided it was worth his time to shell out the 5kg to have me email PA to remove my feedback.. before that he refused to give me 5kg to buy epic flying.
After that apparently my other account I bought for farming, the seller included some email info for me to contact him if I had any issues.. PA decided that was "insider trading" or "off-site" trading since he gave me the info and told me I owed them $150 bucks..

$150 comes because I had been farming on EQ2 for a bit with ISXEQ2 and decided that harvesting bot was shit compared to gatherbuddy.. but really, 450 bucks cause some seller sent me info to contact him outside of PA? Ontop of the shitty service that they claim their commission is worth for verification purposes..
Just my 2c, it's good for sellers even though until you're a powerseller, they take their 10% currency + 5 fee out of your currency sales then tell you to wait 2-3 BUSINESS days to get the money unless you're a huge power seller. I'm sure some people have had good success with PA, but after buying a "verified" wow account without wow on it, yikes.
I'd rather go sign up under a proxy and skip the 450, their detection services arent very good.
