Ebay pros I need your help

[Mr. Flopnuts]

I just had an auction end on ebay. Person paid immediately with paypal but is unverified and has an unconfirmed address. I'm scared to ship the item. I'm not trying to get ripped off here. What are my options? Rep to anyone who knows what I can do to protect myself here. I'm new to this thing, and I already don't like it.

Here is your answer, Paypal then controls the money with access to your bank account. They can take it back at any time.

Starting a dispute is easy, I only had to do it twice, both times resolved as soon as the other party was notified of the dispute.

Or B. refund the money and they can send me a USPS money order. If that's horrible, hit me up before noon your time. Seems like a logical solution without anyone getting butthurt.

If you have stated what the buyer's feedback is, I have missed it. As others have said, that should determine what you do.

Option A doesn't do you much good. You still won't be protected by Paypal if they do a chargeback. Afterall, you could have mailed him a brick in a box and he'd still have to sign for it.

But it does show you sent something and it has the weight as well. I have had two instances and lost $25 before I learned to use CC's. I can charge back and AE is seriously for the card-holder.
