Advice On Message Form Buyer Of Mobile Phone Please

heskpesk · 20 June 2008 at 12:20PM

Hi just sent Special delivery for £5.05. I said to the cashier that it was better than only being able to claim upto £36 and she stated that mobile phones are not covered at all under non special delivery methods. So I assume if I had sent recorded delivery and phone was lost or damaged then I would have lost the whole £60 so thanks everyone for advice.

The buyer has just emailed me in relation to me asking if someone would be present to sign for and this was the reply:

"Yes, I bought it for a mate and he used his paypal account and thats his address so you may use that for recorded delivery"

Should I be worried again or am I suffering from severe paranoia (cannot spell)?

Yes the order details stated confirmed address and to only send to the address below (which was the address I sent to). However just a bit confused as the phone was paid for using friends Paypal who wanted the phone and his friends address (I think).So how can it be confirmed if using the buyers eBAY ACCOUNT. Very confused and a tad worried.

thank you for your interest though pinkgem

Dont worry about it, as long as you sent it to the paypal confirmed address you are covered. When buying through ebay you can use any paypal address, I use a account which is a different name to my paypal.

Once you have a confirmed address you can add any more addresses to it that you want and they will also show as confirmed. One of my confirmed addresses is actually a remote holiday let that a relative stayed in once.
