This guys has 4 feedback on ebay, one non paying bidder, three positive from other sellers. He wants me to ship a computer he bought from me to his daughter while he pays via paypal. Is this a good idea? I'm quite hesitant, as $400 is involved here, what are some ways I could be screwed? Thanks for your inputs.

Ship only to verified address.

not a chance. its most likely a scam.

Send it to him and let him ship elsewhere.

of course this is a terrible idea. only ship to a confirmed paypal address. otherwise paypal will not protect you when he claims that the computer never arrived.

yeah, tell him no way if he pays with paypal.

stop assuming everyone in ebay is trying to scam you. paranoid like you annoys me. ask for other form of payment, if you are not comfortable with paypal.

I can't believe people are so gullible.

Nothing personal.. But use a little common sense.

ONLY SHIP TO CONFIRMED ADDRESSES.

I would be leery even shipping to a confirmed addy - with the NPB.
