I love these threads, they remind me to never, ever, sell/buy on the bay. Too many people out there looking for a way to make money out of nothing and scam honest people.

Indeed, I hate them both, scum companys.

I think it depends what you sell, certain things seem more prone to hassle.

As for paypal, unfortunately, it is pretty much a necessity for selling on ebay, if you don't accept it then you lose potential bidders and might not sell for the best price. While at the same time you'll get numerous emails asking whether you accept it and then inevitably it'll be won by someone that assumed you'd accept it without actually bothering to check.

As above, get him to post you pictures that the seals are intact before posting it to you. Keep copies of all the correspondence.

Don't do this, you can leave the stickers intact by using a hairdryer so it's not really a reliable test.

So now he's saying that there's no seal under the faceplate ?, if that's true then that means it won't be under warranty any more, were you the first person to own that 360 ?, and you haven't open the system up yourself at all have you ?

Yes i am the first owner of the xbox360 and still got original receipt and never tried to open the xbox360 in anyway.
