Thats interesting as the guy has only bought one other thing for £10 and my camera was only £130, I dont know, may be it was genuine, maybe not, but he has agreed to cancel now anyway, so I just need to try and resale it in time to buy a couple of presents on the bright side my kr performed great at my daughter's singing show tonight

I had a problem a few months ago where monies had gone from my bank to paypal, but because they didn't show up on the paypal account (for over 10 days) I was in the same boat as the purchaser.
I did email the seller and kept him advised throughout though

It's why I now only sell through Amazon Marketplace. I just can't stand eBay any more.
With Marketplace you set your price and Amazon show you exactly how much you will receive once you have paid fees.
I have never had a single issue with this and have now sold a number of items.
It's no use if you need the money quickly, but I tend to run it as a reverse auction - start off with a high price and keep lowering it until it sells.

Hi, thanks for that, never thought of amazon marketplace, Im pretty fed up with ebay, I know that! I have it on avforums at the moment, but a moderator has posted asking if it was the one sold on ebay with a link to my camera, and then put a link to the rules, I think he thinks that I have just bought it and trying to make a quick profit so I have had to explain now that it was a sale fallen through. Selling this camera is becoming a bit of a nightmare! Is all I want is to sell it for a reasonable price, I am already losing on it! So far Ive had 2 people who show a big interest and then just seemed to dissapear, 2 buyers on ebay who bought it and then one changed their mind and one couldn't pay. Wish I didn't need the money so bad, I would just keep it as a back up! Oh well, thanks for all your advice and help

It is suspicious that he is bidding on items without having his paypal account verified beforehand.
I buy items on e-bay and my account is not verified, ebay give a yearly allowance i think mine is about £1900.00 and i can buy up to a maximum of £500.00 a month.
Cheers
