Quick question regarding paying for stuff on eBay

stuppy · 18 Mar 2007 at 02:09

Hi,

I am about to buy something for £650 on eBay. What method of payment should I use (or not use) to ensure security as regards if something goes **** up (i.e. item is faulty, item is not as described). I want to know the best way to retrieve my money if need be.

Thanks

I thought so, must be safer than any other way then i guess.. i no my brother had trouble with someone on ebay selling a faulty item, in the end he got his money back, he also used paypal.

LOL paypal, IT IS NOT SAFE

if they just withdraw the cash to their bank, say byebye to your money if something goes wrong

for that amount i wouldnt be using anything other then cash on collection after making sure everything is ok
