Sold Item To Us Ebayer Am I Being Scammed

[Mike Fishcake]

I would have thought so... surely that's the point of waiting for it to clear?

(not taking responsibility though!)

The echeque has now cleared in my Paypal accnt So is it now ok to post the item to him or can he in anyway stop the echeque

Man you are paraniod! Send him the item and remind me never to buy anything off you on eBay!

If it's in your PayPal account he can't remove it. Only way he can get his money back now is if you refund him.

...Slow down mate! There are so many scams coming out of ebay & Paypal of late if you get paid by some other means that you are not used to (as i have) and when a overseas buyer starts trying to get you to accept other payment methods that was'nt on your auction i think i have a right to be suspicious! ...Also read this about echeques!

The web address in your post appears as a load of stars for some reason?

Problem is not nationality of e-bayer, there are non-payers both sides of The Pond. E-bay is a US company remember. Unless you specified PayPal only, there is nothing wrong, surely, with an International Money Order, payment is payment. If you did not specify PayPal only, then the issue becomes you refusing to accept a legitimate form of payment. This is something better sorted out through e-bay disputes. Good luck with it.

if you go into your pay pal account it will tell you when the echeque is going to be cleared..
i have had **** loads of them and i have never had any problem with any they dont bounce..
normally they need 7 days to clear... i had most of mine from the USA...

i hope this helps........:-)

If wannabgeek hasn't sorted it by now, then they have serious issues to look into

Takes a while with paypal sometimes

I would put everything on hold till the cheque clears . Also I would double check with your Bank and get written confirmation from them . Heard of a case this week where the cheque was paid in and cleared after 7 day period then the bank came back after that and said that the cheque had 'bounced' --strange state of affairs, very disturbing!!.
