yo, I'm selling a car on e-bay and put my e-mail addy in the listing and someone has mailed me asking if he can pay via pay-pal (not through e-bay) and collect the car once the money has cleared.

I've never used pay-pal for a larger sum (3k) before and was wondering if it's dodgy or not as I've heard of people paying for things then claiming the money back?? Anything else to look out for???

Thanks Jim.

No way would i accept paypal for that amount of cash not only is there the chance of you being scammed and them claiming it back as most of the time in the event of a dispute paypal always favours the buyer there is also the fact paypal will take a big cut of it aswell.

yep, that's what I would do as well, but mine would be non-returnable...

I wouldn't, deposit hold the car and collection is when they pay the balance in cash,

Told him cash, fuck him, he's desperate to put money into my paypal acount, he said he would love to pay a deposit if he could have my paypal addy.

Kiss my ass son.
