How can I cover myself?
Hi everyone I don't often paypal but I've managed to sell something for £150. The buyer is going to transfer the money via paypal. Is there anything I can do to make sure this doesn't go south?

The 'Have a Moan' thread
This thread is just a bit of fun, it is not meant to be taken seriously. If you have an issue with your ebay sales, or worry about keywords etc then start a new thread for proper responses. I suppose by its very nature it is business orientated as private sellers will have no steady sales due to not having stock- but feel…

reduced Parcelforce postage via ebay
I'm thinking of selling a heavy item (over 10kg) via ebay and using the ebay postage link to Parcelforce so it could go at £11.99. However I can't see whether there is any way via this link to increase the compensation to nearer £150. If I go direct to Parcelforce it will do it but then they will charge almost £30 postage.…

eBay refund gone wrong - paid £160 to eBay, they're denying all trace of it
Hello all, Long time lurker, first time poster. My situation without getting into too many specifics: 1. I sold an item. 2. The dodgy buyer opened a case and won the case. 3. eBay/PayPal put a hold on my PayPal funds to cover their costs of making a refund to the buyer. 4. In order to close the case and get my PayPal…

Best Offer. Can I make a conditional offer?
I am looking to buy an electrical item. I have found a couple on EBay. I am aware that this item (Babyliss Pro Curler) has some fakes floating around. I want to make an offer on one which the seller says they bought and tried once (hence cannot return). Can I say that the offer is on condition that the original receipt is…

Tracked to US?
I need to send something (a sale, but not eBay) to the US and am a bit out of touch with what's currently available - it seems to have been changing a lot recently, so I thought I'd ask here, where there is expertise. Weight under 1.5kg, size (depending on packing) no more than 30x20x15cm, value GBP500-1k. Speed less…

Only rumours
It's only rumours at the moment but I've seen more than one suggestion that come the next RM price changes they may be adding a large letter rate to the airmail option. I certainly hope so, I have a number of very small items , 30g packed and having to send them as a packet is incredibly expensive. Alternatively I would…

eBay item not working/as described
I bought some vouchers on EBay, the type that have a QR code on them. I tried to use them but the shop assistant said they'd already been used. I tried 2 out of the 6 I purchased. I contacted the seller to tell her this and she was unhelpful and said she hadn't used them, and tried to blame it on the fact that I asked her…
