Dodgy E-bay Sale?

[sgt_pepper]

hey guys, i just had this item on e-bay finish: EBAY

so, as you can see, ive had a bidder come in, with 0% feedback. he payed very quickly, but has sent me a message asking to send the cards to a different address.
just doesnt feel right? what would you guys do?
cheers.

confirmed addresses only and let him know he will get a non payment strike if they do not complete the deal ! even better idea is offer it to the next highest bidder via pm

Did he pay by PayPal? As Ive heard really experienced sellers say they will only post to PayPal address if paid by PayPal that is.

Glad you get paid quickly I sold something 3 days ago have no heard a thing something else more than 48 hours ago have not heard a thing. I just pay as soon as auction finishes (except if the auction fisnishes in the middle of the night) - it would be nice if everyone did that but back to the real world lol. :v:

Low $ figure... if you can prove delivery you're sweet. If dodgy then cancel or 2nd chance

I've had this happen (ask to send to a different address) so I simply ask them to request the change of address through their eBay account so you have proof should you ever need it.

LMAO did you read the initial post? They buyer has already paid

A non-payment strike for paying. Nothing would suprise me when it comes to ebay.

cheers guys. will wait and see what his reply is, then go from there. 2nd chance offer will be given if i end up turning this dude down.
he only joined a few days ago, and we all gotta start somewhere i guess?
thanks again for the quick responses...

MAte if he paid like you say....send it on but get him to confirm the address through eBay

Sounds more like an inexperienced user rather than a dodgy one. Don't really think anybody would do a dodgy for $6 unless really really desperate !!!!!

mate i share my ebay account all the time with a mate and do exactly what this guy does. I have never encountered this issue with a seller.

Agree with Dom. Everyone starts with 0 feedback. He has paid. its low dollar item. I change my shipping address sometimes because I try to think will it be better delivered to home or work address depending on when and what I bought. Nothing to worry about.

But as others have suggested, make sure the address request is in writing in your email account. I pressume it already is unless you called him.
