New to Ebay - Advice re postage
I've just discovered the delights of Ebay and have converted a few bits of junk into a moneysavers dream.

Foreign Payments Options other than paypal?
As each day passes I get more wary of Palpal all the time as I read all these chargeback horror stories. What are the other options of recieving payments from outside the UK that are secure if any.

I even sent her a second chance offer for one that she was outbid on, and she let that lapse to. Her husband got in contact and said his wife was really…
