Potential buyer or attempted scam?
Hello everyone, I’m not a professional seller, but I use Ebay only to get rid of things ahead of a move. I’ve already made a few sales over the past year with good satisfaction, but today I came across a buyer who left me with several doubts. Besides asking me for a shameful discount (he wanted to pay less than a third of the requested price for the item), and even lecturing me after I رفضed, he proposed paying by bank transfer and shipping with his own courier, which he would send me, who knows when, because he first wanted to bundle several shipments together to save money.
His feedback is 100% positive, but his behavior made me think. Obviously I have no intention of having anything to do with him regardless, given the attitude, but I’m wondering whether my alarm is justified and whether I could, perhaps, report him to Ebay so that his profile can be checked.

·3 years agoBy paying you by bank transfer, he was proposing a transaction outside of eBay.

·3 years agoas Mario said, bank transfer excludes eBay guarantees, but there are plenty of paranoid people who don't register a credit card, so it doesn't mean it's a scam, probably just an annoying one
