jeff_14 Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 I just sold a 4x4 Ltd Edition Crawler on ebay to a buyer in the Netherlands who has no feedback, and has already sent me a message saying he will pay in 2 days once his paypal account is set up. Apart from obtaining insurance on the shipping, is there anything I should be doing or worried about? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I invoiced him for shipping plus insurance. All I've heard back is about the paypal issue so I'm waiting for payment to arrive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seapotato Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 Are you shipping via air? Someone mentioned before that if you ship by boat, which takes up to 8 weeks, they can open a case and say they did not receive the item within the 30 days, even though there is a tracking number.
