Of course always check your paypal account by manually going to paypals site, not clicking any links in emails. If there is no money in your paypal then its obviously a scam and yes then cancel it. But if a newly registered person buys something and the money is in your paypal, as long as you send it by a tracked and signed for service to the address on paypal then there is little to worry about. Ive been using paypal personally for years and also use it for thousands of pounds worth of transactions at work every day and have no issues. There customer service is excellent. We always use tracked and signed for service to the buyers address on paypal and if the buyer tries a chargeback, we just give them the proof of where we sent it and proof of delivery etc and they instantly side with us.
Thanks for the words of assurance. Good to know.
Does this generally work with ebay because I always heard that paypal sides with buyers than sellers?

Thats usually because items arent sent either by a tracked and signed for service or not sent to the address given on ebay at the time of sale. As long as its sent to the address given on ebay and sent by a tracked and signed for service then you are covered by ebay/paypal seller protection policy. Its a bit more difficult if someone claims the item is damaged though.

Finally found somewhere with the Crawler Crane in stock at RRP and not silly money. Box was a bit bashed on arrival but I'm not really in it for the box/resale value 
Soon to be 5 things in my build queue - can't wait to get started!
(Arcos Truck, Crawler Crane, Porsche, Bucket Wheel Excavator, TFA Millennium Falcon)

Sounds like someone needs the 8043 excavator to go with that lot.

Now i'm mostly moved in, started putting some of my UCS models up. Still need to get the SSD sorted!
That looks you have you have Red 5 straight instead of angled upwards? How did you manage that?
Caporegime
Errr...doesn't yours do that?
Soldato
If its like the other awful stands, it should move back and forth so you have the option.
Soldato
My Red 5 is bottom heavy so if I tilt it forward it just slips back to angled. I thought they were all like that?
Caporegime
No, mine seems reasonably balanced. It certainly doesn't take much force to knock it back though.
Soldato
Apparently I can just reverse the stand so it will display better straight, I'll try that later.
Still waiting for my Snowspeeder but can't fault Lego's customer service, they have re-ordered it with next day delivery, sent out the bonus R2-D2 separately, added the R2-M2 bonus polybag to the the new Snowspeeder order and gave me 600 VIP points for the inconvenience.

What happened?

Ordered on the 29th, Marked as dispatched, received a tracking number but it was never handed over to Yodel. A week passed and still no movement so they re-ordered it for me.
