To be honest I can go without the chain, I buy loads anyway, its just I hate the thought of some poor guy walking into what could be a nasty trap. I tried talking to ebay and they didnt seem to care so posted here in the hope that some of the 'veteran' posters would know how to properly report this to the correct place. You will never soar like an eagle if you hang around with turkeys.....

No, he wouldn't take payment through paypal, he wanted cash on collection but said he would send an invoice for my protection.
I wouldn't give him a dime but am pretty worried that someone will take a fall here that's why I posted.

Maybe he'd be willing to meet at a police station? ;)

I don't know why the moderators here would want to get involved in
a e-bay transaction that is not a transaction and doesn't involve any
members.
I would hope that anyone with the means to buy this jewelry would have
the good sense to be wary as you have been.

I trust most members here more than lots of my friends. They deal with PMs and can usually spot someone trying to take the money and run. This is CCF (Coin Community Family). Who better to ask than someone in your family that KNOWS how things like this work? Ben ANA ID: 3203813 - CONECA ID: N-5637 Clean a coin that may be worth collecting? Please DON'T! When in doubt, leave it dirty!!

ebay Canada no longer accepts cash as valid payment method. I thought ebay.uk would be the same. Best way to make sure nobody follows the footsteps you were almost going to make is to leave feedback on the seller. A neutral one describing the seller's request will be enough to turn away most buyers.

There's enough "shady" here to offer an effective 100% chance of rain in the weather forecast. Unfortunately, there is not a whole lot you can do aside what you've done. ebay.uk's rules allow cash payment upon collection - not unreasonable in my opinion - and beyond that you're stuck with just allowing life to take it's course, trusting in the instincts of those who see this seller's offerings. You and I both know what's going on, but all we can do is watch. Of course, were I running ebay, your call would have elicited a question-and-answer session between ebay and the seller. But I don't run ebay. |
