    The buyer doesn't have water tight protection paying with Paypal either despite what they say and you think.

    I'd rather have the 99% protection paying by PayPal than 0% protection paying by bank transfer. Especially when it's such a high value item.

    Now relisted - the bit about accepting £700 to end the auction has gone, but still says he wont accept PayPal because he hasn't got a PayPal account.

    Jeez! What an idiot!! If he doesn't want to use Paypal he should go and use a different platform.

    So did they only pull it because of the buy it now price which would lose them money?


    Not because of seller protection?
