Default eBay plonkers

Sorry to butt in folks but I've just had an e-mail from a guy in Portugal who's bidding on some of my parts in eBay, about 15Kg total, asking whether I'll sell to him.

He has 0 feedback, and I specifically stated in my listings that I would only post to the UK.

Should I be suspicious or allow the sale to go ahead? Will the T&Cs of eBay mean I have no come-back if he rips me off? Will I be beautiful in the morning if I kiss enough frogs?

Thanks!

Al

It can only go "wrong" if you sent the stuff out before you get the money.

I've sold a few bits to people abroad no probs, even chumps with no feedback, everyone has to start somewhere
Ebay will reimburse your final valuation fee IF he don't pay up, you won't get any money back from the listing fee

And no you will always be an ugly fooker

Make sure you get the money first and there will be no probs I sold some blue rear clusters for an s2 to a guy from abroad a while back and he payed Ł110, which was more than they cost new!
