Ebay payment question

[94LS]

Wow, thats really weird i got a e-mail from someone yesterday wanting to ship my PSP to Nigeria. It was at $250 and he said he would pay 400 for the psp and $120 to ship it, altho i did not do it

yeah, just look on the ebay help forums, and you'll see all the Nigeria Fraud happening lately. Those forums have taught me alot about selling, i would recommend going there before you decide to sell something again.

that happened to me a couple years back when trying to sell my eclipse, i got a couple $15,000 checks at my house still....all you gotta do is bring the check to the bank, have them call the bank that the check came from and they well tell you if its real or not....most of the time the the moeny order or check is real...but have been stolen or something, this stuff happens all the time on ebay.

will the bank tell you if the particular cashiers check was stolen, or will they just say that is a legit/not legit cashiers check? If this guy does send all that money, i'll just take it to my bank, where they know me personally, and check to see if its legit or not. i'm not holding my breath, thats for sure!

and people wonder why I never buy/sell on ebay and never send money via paypal....got burned once, never again.

UPDATE: I just got an email from ebay stating they banned this member from Ebay and I got about half of my auction fees back and I am free to relist the item within 30 days. So...moral of the story? EUROPEANS SUCK!!! No, not really the moral, but it is true..haha. Sellers and buyers alike, do your research and seriously use the Ebay Forum, it was a lifesaver for me.

I can't believe anyone falls for these, i have a friend who told me about it the first time i had ever heard of one and i told him not to do it cuz it was a scam, sure enough he lost like $2500. I am very skeptical about anything out of the ordinary but i still can't believe anyone falls for these.

Is it worth fighting for my $7.99 for charges? becasue they where a fake?
