Advice needed - ebay buyer making a good offer
Comments

Last time i chequed (boom boom) it was possible to cancel one.
Besides - it's a well known scam to send a cheque for a value higher than the purchase price then claim it was a mistake- can you please refund the difference?
Lo and behold, the cheque is a fake and you've already sent the buyer a refund of the difference.
Brooke - if you've never been ripped off on ebay, then you're very lucky!
It's only £45, surely not worth the effort of some elaborate scam?
I've been rippeed off twice, both times via paypal, I've had a few bounced cheques, but never before I've shipped anything.0 -
Don't let greed get the better of you - as someone has suggested above there is a reason they are offering you this money and the chances are it is only going to benefit them, not you. I just hope you have described this item properly as you hear of many items on ebay being grossly undervalued / miss described...0

A final PS - the item sold for £48 plus £9 postage, total £57.
I'm so glad I didn't accept the offer!Total debt: 1 January 2007 £[strike]49,387.79[/strike] 1 January 2012 £[STRIKE]19,312.85[/STRIKE] 1 August 2012 £11,517.620 -
