    it’s the same situation if OP prints out a voucher from something online, what’s to say that buyer doesn’t use it and then claim they couldn’t use it as it was already used. An online version, or whatever OP has that they’re going to print out could conceivably be printed out several times , and that’s probably why eBay don’t allow this type of voucher. Buyer receives voucher, and then claims it has already been used, and seller loses their money.

    The scam is a well known one the other way round. Before this type of voucher was banned from sale a scammer could sell dozens , send them all out and be long gone with their money before the first buyer complaint hits eBay.
