looking on sphock noticed an item was being advertised with "sphock buyer protection" with delivery this costing an extra £20 ontop of the purchase price
has anyone had any experiance with this? buying on ebay i know i would get my item or my money back but not used to similar on sphock
item is £300 so not wanting to lose out, seller had +5 positve reviews

The last time I used SHpock they were using PayPal, but I have no idea if they are still doing that or if they have their own payment method now. Personally I never used their payment services as they took a huge chunk of the money, instead I always used PayPal for my buyers- so you might try speaking to the seller.I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the eBay, Auctions, Car Boot & Jumble Sales, Boost Your Income, Praise, Vents & Warnings, Overseas Holidays & Travel Planning , UK Holidays, Days Out & Entertainments boards.

looks like its their own payment system
would it be safer than paypal? guess i am asking if anyone has used it and had any issues?

Seem to remember it mentioned buyer protection a lot and very little about the seller protection.
Assume its going to be very similar to paypal. must send to the registered address and probably wont
cover you if they send back a faulty or wrong item same as paypal.
On their comparison it shows
Paypal 3.4% +20p Sphock 3% - 8%.
Bit that annoys me, why are we paying more for UK sellers? £10 UK but only €8 for Austria, Germany and Italy.
£10 is closer to €11.
