Im pretty sure if you pay through Paypal you're covered. I sold something and the buyer said it hadnt arrived. Paypal gave them the money back, with no chance to question it.

I would risk it.

yeah when i sold somthing to a buyer the other week it didnt allow to me to have the money until the buyer had given me positive feedback

[Mej]

anyone else before i part with my hard earned cash.

Life's a gamble - you could always drop em an Email first for all the good etc

They've all got to start somewhere. With PAYPAL you've got reasonable cover

depends on item (iPhones from nigeria and diamonds from sierra leone = no no no) and whether it's near enough for you to collect..

For that sort of cash I'd be tempted to request collection if it's not too far away? Also depends if listing & pics are detailed.. Generic catalogue image from google images and a 5 word description saying "shiny shiny rear sets, mint" would prolly set some bells ringing for me

too late now mate, spoke to him and he seemed genuine, so if not then pay pal should have my back.
