ebay problems !

Hi,

just sold my phone on ebay and only just noticed that the winner bidder is from the America ( Calnifornia ) with only 5 positive feedbacks over a year ago.

I have just sent her an invoice anyways, and added postage to make up for it. What happens if she doesn't pay, would i loose out on ebay fees etc etc ?

still pretty annoying ! assume paypal works the same over there, is there any way paypal might also retract payment if later finds out she is dodgy ?

oh and how come she is even allowed to bid, as i put on my auction UK bidders only ?? :confused:

Hi
Sorry, I am from USA, and Interested to buy your item and now I have winning bidder for your item. But, Could you send the item to my friend in Indonesia?

but surely as long as she/he/it pays me, then not much they can do as i've got the money ???

thanks again guys.

I have contacted the person saying i'm going to withdraw from the auction and will send an message to ebay saying if i can get my listing fee back.

then re list it for next week. This time adding in huge bold letters UK bidders only.

how can i stop this happening again ??
