Never done it before and dubious, can it be trackeD? postage expensive??
Been asked to send an item thats large and worth about £150. I dont fancy sending it to spain or austria tbh (been asked to send to both)
All foregners scammers or am i just paranoid??

bit dodgey. You can track it with UPS and that sort of company though.
Not your problem if it goes missing. Just get payment in full first, send the package and give them the tracking code. Job done and forget about it.

yeah i wouldnt even bother, you can track it its not that expensive but it is more than the uk obviously, especially if your wanting to insure it for £150.
its not worth the bother, especially for the waiting times, if refunds ect come into consideration.

you just dont bother refunding.
Its dodgey if your receiving, but when your doing the sending you can just forget about it once you send it out.

yeah. The only risk when selling is if your a complete tard.
Its as simple as...getting full payment cleared prior to sending. Send and send tracking code. Forget about it.

only thing is with paypal, if the person who buys your goods and pays through paypal has nicked some ones account then your screwed and it does happen a lot.

I cant see why you wont post within EU. When i was powerseller on ebay in UK i sold all over and never had any trouble. Just make sure payment has cleared and that.Also make sure that feedback is good and get people to email you first and check,. I get items shipped to my house in Spain all the time.
