Hi all, I just wanted to get some opinions on what to do with this buyer. I sold a necklace via buy it now to a buyer in France. Because paypal cannot confirm the address as they are outside the US, I have no seller protection. This buyer is pressing me to undervalue the item (sold for $300.00), gift wrap it (I did not state anything about gift wrapping in my auction) and send it to the same address but a different name. The name on the paypal account was a non-French very ethnic sounding name, but C/O a French name and address. This person has already changed their ebay user name as of a day or so ago, and had a listing removed under the previous user name via ebay this weekend. All 49 of their feedbacks are positive so I decided to look further into it this morning. Almost all listings were "private" but when I clicked on the sellers' feedbacks for these items, and looked into their current auctions almost ALL of them were 1 cent ebooks. Now I am very nervous and I am thinking about just refunding this person. They keep telling me to ship as a gift even though I keep responding that I cannot do this. They have contacted me today to see if I shipped but to try to scare them, I told them that I am corresponding with paypal to check about the gift thing and mailing to a different person (even though I know full well the paypal rules about this).
Trust my gut?
