Hi all, I listed an item for sale 3 days ago. It's collection in person.I have just been contacted by someone saying they can collect and pay in cash and said would round the price up which will make it £2.10 more than the listed price. Person only joined eBay yesterday, so wondering if this is some form of scam I'm guessing nothing stops the buyer from clicking the buy now button and then have to deal with the fall out if I really is a scam. Any idea how to proceed?

Scammers don't offer to pay cash, the payment can't be reversed (any electronic payment can). However, eBay don't allow cash payments, so they'd need to pay for the item before you can exchange contact details to arrange collection. Your buyer will be given a 6 digit code and a QR code, you can use either to confirm collection when they turn up.
