• Ha, no I am in the market for a commercial espresso machine with a budget in that ballpark. This particular machine normally would sell used for around £5-7k. It really is too good to be true, but I'd had some gin and now I have enormous, huge remorse.

    What was meant to happen was I would hit BIN to secure it, get in touch with the seller, arrange cash on collection and bail if anything smelt fishy. What happened was I hit BIN and Paypal took the cash immediately. Probably could have been avoided if I wasn't such a bellend.

  • Don't worry. Paypal will give you the money back if you don't get what you thought you were going to get. I've good experience of this, been in that situation before!

    Whenever I've bought anything, the purchase and the payment were separate.

    Perhaps it's because of the value?
