credit_crunch

hi everyone! i have 43 listed some new but most are old lol! sold 3 things last night - a king size matress, a computer desk, and that body trim malarky! totalled over £100 so very pleased with that!

I think im going to start listing some stuff on ebay soon!
Im trying to de-clutter my room as i have too much stuff everywhere.
Ive boxed up a load of stuff i dont want - mostly for car boot sales, as not worth listing on ebay.

I have loads of cds/dvds but think they may be better for car boots rather than ebay.
I have a few PS2 Games like Singstar ones which would sell better on ebay, and i used to collect the Me To You teddys and figurines, so going to list a few of them off next few weeks.

Then i might have a bit more room! haha!

I've got 30 things on Turbolister so far, 29 are comics and a baby dress.

Got quite a few things finishing tonight but no bids as yet (knowing my luck I won't get any) so I'll just relist all that tonight as well.

hi all
sorry been so busy with stuff at home and sorting problems.

i have sold an iphone today and its a usa buyer with zero feedback. i dont sell to usa and my preferences are set to that so i dont know why they bid.
they have 0 feedback and have bid 230.00 which is loads. i have mailed them and no reply and they have not paid. i dont know what to do as i feel im about to be scammed in some way.

can anyone help?
thanks

Hi mrscmr - sorry can't really help with your question, hopefully someone will be able to.

I sold an item the other day when I went to send an invoice it said a US address but when I clicked on their feedback page it said they were registered in the UK. They paid with Paypal and it had a UK address on the Paypal form so am quite confused about it all.

I hope your buyer is genuine.

Hi mrscmr, with your iphone - can it be used in the states? My mum has 2 phones - one for uk and one for us as the operate differently.....

Hope its not a scammer.

It looks as though your seller requirements were not set in all 3 places. There is the main setting 'block bidders in countries that I do not ship to' then there are two other places on the sell item form. It depends how you listed, but you need to make sure that international postage is not allowed, leaving options blank is not sufficient. Ebay and Auctiva (not sure about TL) default to leaving International delivery open if that is your normal setting.

Firstly, do not even consider sending this overseas as you have no postal insurance at all. Even if it is a legit buyer I would suggest a neg rather than a monetary loss.

Get in touch with your buyer immediately, explain that your account should not have allowed overseas bidders and that it can't be sent outside the UK. If the offer a UK address then make sure you get them to add it to paypal so that you are covered on there.
