i've only sold one item on ebay and the seller was awesome! even though i got killed with shipping to Canada (that was my fault for not doing the proper research), the rest of the transaction went smoothly and the buyer was happy with my CL shoes.
now i may be selling another item, more expensive than the last and i just feel nervous about it. the propesctive buyer is from HI and i'm in the continental US. ok, no problem except shipping is a bit more right? i want to send it insured with signature. she wants free shipping too but i said No. i want $30 for shipping. is that too much?
i just hear so many people being scammed, and not just buyers, but sellers as well. how common is the bait and switch? from a sellers standpoint?
i know my bag is 100% authentic.
i have a Buy it now option or best offer. the prospective buyer was haggling me about the price, but i was ok with that. i understand. now she wants to just send me a payment through Paypal, that way i don't have to pay fees. am i protected as a seller if something happens by doing that? i really don't know why i'm so paranoid...maybe b/c i lurk alot in this section and read about legitimate sellers going through hell with their buyers
she has great feedback so she's no stranger to ebay, which is good.
any thoughts?
sorry if i'm rambling...i just wanted to type this quickly before my baby woke up.
