Hi all -
Try and cut it short....
Sold wheels on eBay to buyer who offered not far off asking price and has Zero feedback. He did ask a cpl of Q's relating to wheels which suggests basic knowledge. His address is work address (he's away for a week) and name and (quick google) address match up to a legit company in London and him being the MD? Have done the usual and kept screenshots of msgs etc and pics of item being (and) packed and will ensure tracked courier (parcelforce) and weight on PO receipt. Whilst I would naturally lean towards being an optimist and recognising everyone on eBay one day buys something for the first time, is there any advice to further safeguard myself (if needed) and anything the buyer could potentially do (scam wise) to f*** me over, at least anything more than just costing me time and PITA? I've heard of people saying box was empty or weighed down with paper etc. Will Paypal protect me?
Cheers
