Just sold last years phone for £186

Of course now I just have to see if they pay up ;)
They are in Canada by the looks of it DESPITE me listing that I would only send it to Europe *sigh*
Oh well they will pay the cost of postage so I don't really care where it gets sent to and they have good feedback, but it won't be a cheap postage :) (it's the XDA IIs with lots of bits and bobs) and it's gonna be sent international recorded and insured and they will have to pay for that :)

Cross your fingers peeps!!! :D

    Will keep fingers crossed for you but i got a feeling you are going to be going down the NPB route soon. I hope i'm wrong though. Please let us know, maybe it will restore our faith in mankind.

    Well last year I sold my previous XDA II and that all went smoothly :) Have to admit I have only had ONE problem in all the years of using ebay and that was over a top not arriving. Taught me to always get proof of posting and signature on delivery.

  • It's poor that ebay allows Canadian users to bid on your item if you've not selected their region as one you'll post to, don't you think?

    I had the same thing with a motherboard I sold...

    If that turns out to be the case don't send it. You will not be protected if they pay via paypal.

    There is a bit in your preferences which you can tick to only allows bidders with an address in the countries that you post to.
