This question has always bugged me..
How do folks sell/ship knives to International Buyers without getting Scammed?
I've sold things using Ebay/PayPal, but so far only to USA buyers.
Ok the few things I DO know are..
1. Credit Card Charge-Backs.
If Buyer doesn't have a PayPal "Confirmed" shipping address, then Seller is not covered by Ebay's "Seller Charge-back Protection".
2. USPS Money Orders.
I noticed many BF Exchange & Ebay sellers only accept USPS Money Orders. Ok that deals with the problem of Credit Card Chargebacks.. but doesn't really help with International Buyers.
3. When I was selling a Playstation 3 on Ebay.. my auctions kept ending with super high bids from international bidders (i finally disabled international bidding)
ie. Buyer from UK wins, then wants me to ship to Nigeria.
Not really sure how scam worked, but it was Obviously a Scam!
