skem Posted January 4, 2007 Share Posted January 4, 2007 My favorite part is this line "Found this at WalMart and I thought I would put it on Ebay for someone else to be able to buy." He forgot to add for 150 over retail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BTHOTU Posted January 5, 2007 Author Share Posted January 5, 2007 well the PS3 sold... now its just time to see if they pay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
holygrailvideogames.com Posted January 5, 2007 Share Posted January 5, 2007 well the PS3 sold... now its just time to see if they pay New buyer and private feedback. Not to mention the buyer is in the U.K. You better be sure to only ship to his confirmed address and have proof acceptable to PayPal in case he does a chargeback.

Report the account to Ebay. Anytime you see anything related to Nigeria, you might as well regard it as a scam. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTHOTU Posted January 5, 2007 Author Share Posted January 5, 2007 (edited) Yep, scam.... Now I have to relist.... people are fin stupid these days.... they sent me a fake I paid email from Paypal too... saying they needed the shipping confermation # so that I can actually receive payment in my paypal account. Ebay refunded my FVF allready though If anyone wants it for a little over what I paid + shipping let me know.

Inky Posted January 6, 2007 Share Posted January 6, 2007 Whenever I list something on eBAy (rare), I always put "No overseas shipping" Harsh, yes, but you gotta CYA from those damn scammers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Almost Rice Posted January 6, 2007 Share Posted January 6, 2007 Whenever I list something on eBAy (rare), I always put "No overseas shipping" The nigerians saw it since he listed that he would ship worldwide. I would have kept it US and Canada only. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
