I have someone on ebay wanting to pay by Visa Electron and not by paypal or any of the other options listed on my advert. Should I be suspicious? The person asking has 0% feedback currently.

Granny and sucking eggs and all that but whatever method he pays by eventually done dispatch goods until payment has cleared in your bank

Good plan. It's the time wasters that cause all of the grief. They win the auction, make excuses for days and then pull out meaning that you could have sold to somewhere else. when i used to sell laptops on there, i only accepted immediate payment otherwise it would be offered to the next highest bidder, Its the only way to keep things running smoothly

Its a home made EGR blanking plate worth about £3, most of which will go towards the postage of it. About 75% of my feedback score is due to selling so its not the first time I have had problems with a buyer but this is the first time I have had them offer to pay via another means. I generally deal with second hand car parts. I tend to by a job lot of bits and then sell the rest on to cover the cost of the one piece I wanted out of it.
