    Yep. New ebeyer, no feedback... but for 13 quid curiosity got the better of me. He'd sold 22 last time I looked though, so I'm not alone.
    Kinda assuming I'm gonna receive a ko regular evasion prime, if anything at all.

    Youre not gonna recieve anything. Then wait weeks for eBay to refund your money. Meanwhile, they will be long gone, and help to push eBay fees higher.

    another with the attitud eof oh its only a little bit of money i can get it back through paypal it's worth a punt .... i wish people would stop feeding the obvious scammers money , yes you can get it back but at the cost of fee's going up , with the amount of scammers taking paypals money they have to recoup costs somehow......... the only winners are the scammers

    It's that attitude that keep these scammers doing what they're doing and drive up fees. I don't understand that attitude.

    I think people maybe don't quite understand that the little bit of money has to come from somewhere. The scammers don't give it back. PayPal have to take the hit. And they pass it on.

    and this is the problem i'm talking about you may think it's only a little bit of money but when thousands of people think what the hell , which they do paypal have to cover the costs of losing money somehow because of the oodle's of scammers on ebay which = higher paypal fee's ...........if something look's too good to be true it usually is

    You're also free to not use PayPal if the fees are beyond your means or what you think is fair.

    Well, it's paypal and Ebay's issue to deal with IMHO. Ebay can increase the requirements to open an account from China, which i suspect they might.. but let's not feel sorry for Ebay or Paypal, i think they are doing pretty well financially.
