    It's because you advertise that you'll post worldwide.
    It really really isn't worth the hassle, dipping in and out of potential scammer territory.

    Also, if you set up your auction as paypal only (Immed payment required) then you may fare better in the long run.
    It's BOUGHT (to Buy), not BROUGHT (to bring) AND you cannot be frauded, only DEfrauded.

    Please do not buy animals from a pet store. Visit your local sanctuary or centre and give a good home to an unloved or abandoned animal.

    Oh. I forgot about the immediate payment 'thingy'. Ill just set that, Im re-listing it as the second highest bidder doesnt want it, Ill hopefully get the same or more for it.

    I actually dont really want payment via paypal for this item as the fees are going to be extortinate, however, the option is there for those who may be thinking im there to scam them.

    One more thing, my feedback has nearly hit 40, all positives, not bad hey, most of them came in the holidays. Should help towards the new season of college!

    Thanks smartie1976,
