Well, this dude bought my PSU from my ebay auction and has payed me. His Paypal account is verified by ebay australia..should i ship or not?
 
i imagine it should be fine...that said i haven't ever used Paypal here so check anyway...shipping will be nasty tho 😛
 
No.

You are not covered under seller protection.

Personally I would ask for a WU/Bidpay payment and send AFTER you have the money in your hands.
 
don't do it!

1. Hijacked account (possibly but probably)
2. Chargebacks (even if the cash is in your bank account [or spent for that matter])
3. shipping cost
 
the whole sale including shipping is USD$150

i've transfered the money to my bank account and waiting for completion. The buyer is very responsive with e-mails.
 
feedback of that guy? for $100 or under, just do it. not worth the trouble listing everything again.

well, use common sense, is everyone gonna screw you over on ebay? no.

3 -> most auctions state shipping to be paid by buyer

You took the guy's money. If you weren't planning to ship it, you shouldn't have taken the money out of your paypal account. At this point you're screwing him over just by holding his money and putting him in jeopardy. In my opinion you're the one creating a fradulent sale now.

Also, if you don't want to ship out of the U.S. you should be specifying that in your auctions, not letting people bid, pay, and then deciding whether you want to ship. It doesn't work like that, and the option is there for a reason.

My 2 cents.
