Warning To All Sellers

Just to clarify, he doesn't want me to post them to his daughter in Nigeria and…

argggh with parcels and buyers
I sold a large expensive, light but awkward item to a newbie buyer. He didn't want to use paypal because he *knows* it isn't safe but wanted the item shipped immediately. I resisted sending it until the cheque had been in my account a few days and have just struggled to the post office with this thing. When I get there the…
