Right guy's i have been looking at something on Gumtree which looks stunning but its a lot cheaper than market value, now i contacted the seller for more details, the seller say's we could do the deal through "ebay services" even tho the item is not to be found on the bay he says he will register the transaction with ebay and i then have to make payment to ebay who will hold the funds, i will then receive the goods and will have 3 days to inspect/test/evaluate and then i contact ebay when happy and they then release the funds to the seller Has anyone on here ever heard of this or is it a SCAM Just noticed too that Gumtree is in fact an ebay company
Sounds reasonable... there are plenty of companies that offer that service, although I didnt know that ebay do.
If it sounds to cheap. I would be very careful! Better to go pay cash if you can. There thinking of new scams everyday. Pay pal, ebay and whatever doesn't protect you 100%
