Buyer has asked me to send my PayPal details

Just to add......your bag

It should  be sent by special delivery because if you send it by Royal mail by the wrong method.....if it gets lost or damaged in the post they may well not pay you any compensation.

Go to Royal mails website and check out how it should be sent (depending on how much it ends up selling for......)

SCAM!!.

They will send fake payment email & you will lose item.

Anyway, as you are on MP, you no longer get paid into paypal.

Buyer can pay via paypal, but money goes to ebay, who then pay into your linked bank account.

Don't. There are no circumstances on eBay in which a buyer needs to ask for the seller's paypal details.

Tricking sellers into disclosing them is a prelude to at least one, well known criminal scam. Especiallly for high priced designer items! Or they may suggest making an off-eBay deal to evade eBay's fees, which could get both your accounts restricted.

EBay purchases should always be paid through eBay checkout, unless for example collecting in person and paying cash.

Novice sellers selling high priced items are regularly targeted for scams. If you wish to tell us more about the background someone here may be able to give fuurther advice.

p.s. offering to send a £400+ item by the ordinary 1st class post does rather mark you out as naive. You need to use Royal Mail special delivery.
