Brand new 0 feedback buyer

konsolekonsole Posts: 795 ✭✭✭
An average grade Morgan dollar I just sold on ebay was won buy an ebayer that just created that account today and so has 0 feedback. The ebayer already paid but I'm a little nervous about them receiving the coin and then claiming they didnt receive it. Is there anything I can do to maximize my chances of this not happening? You guys got any ideas? It only sold for $24 but I'd still like to make this a smooth transaction.

    Delivery Confirmation should be fine.
  • Send it with Signature delivery confirmation and insure it. That way he can never say he never recieved the package. Confirm the shipping address as well.image

    P.S.

    Tape the edges of your mailing envelope as well as the flap if your sending this in some kind of bubble envelope as the flap in the envelope i recieved recently was carefully sliced open and the coin inside was stolen.

    Everybody has start with a zero rating. At least the bidder bought a low value item, and paid prompty.
    Sounds legit to me.

    No. Spending way too much time and money for an inexpensive coin. You only need delivery confirmation, that's it.

    That's all you need to be covered by PayPal. On items above $250, signature confirmation is required. If you package you coin properly, Insurance is also a waste of $$$.

    Most likely an experienced, good ebayer that needed a new account for more bing cashback and he's just building up feedback with low end purchases.

    What makes you think he's new to Ebay? I just opened a 2nd account, due to the new fee structures,
    and started all over with zero feedback on that account. Over 2000 on my regular account but folks
    would not know that.

    That was my case. My wife had a dead acct she created and never used that suddenly got invited into the ebay bucks program. My wife liked using my acct for selling because I had a feedback of over 1100. So when I logged on to her acct and saw she was eligible for the bucks program I just took hers and her zero feedback and just gave her mine so she can use for selling in the future. My firsy purchase was a $700 coin from Coin Gallery of Boca Raton. I paid promply and sent the item with no hassle or questioning. Great transaction and my first feedback.

    As mentioned I think I have less than five feedback on my second account.
