    - Also, do you always post out as soon as Paypal payment is made? My recent experience makes me want to wait 24-48 hours now if the item is £10 or more. After reading on here what's happened to people recently I will certainly be waiting a few days before sending out the item, even as long as it takes for the money to reach my bank.

    Unfortunately if you wait until the paypal paypal clears into your bank account you will almost certainly lose any seller protection you may have, as well as getting a chargeback from the buyer. To be covered by paypal protection you must ship within 7 days of payment, and most buyers will be expecting their item promptly so may put in a protective chargeback on day 7 as well.

    Good point... maybe I'll just wait a couple of days then! I usually send stuff out straight away, and to be honest have never in my 3 years on eBay had any problems.

    Try puzzlerbingo.com too - it's the same site under a different name. The promo code for £5 free is puzzler ... I won £30 :)

    I did four accounts - one for me and one for my girlfriend on each of the sites. Only won once though :) But yes, it is EXACTLY the same, with the bizarre chat thing at the bottom!
