as you say we all had to start somewhere if they do not pay open non payment disputes they will then find it will get harder to bid. I have had buyers join the and bid on my items and pay.

If it is on the Blackberry phone then I suggest you do not send it via the postage stated on your listing.

Next Day Recorded is the only way you will get any compensation from RM if 'lost' in the post.

If you cannot at least prove delivery/attempted delivery to the address in Paypal by sending trackable you will have no comeback through e-bay either.

Lots of scams on phones.

Make sure you note the IMEI number (and any other distinguishing marks) before dispatch.

Sending a duffer back is one well used scam.
