hello.
a buyer in ebay has bought a guitar. the guitar is only worth £25. The buyer is based in Zambia, and has PO box as address.
Initially i estimated the postage at £42 which buyer paid immediately. But due to packaging, the price went up to £50 postage. i informed him and he paid the extra.
He seemed genuine though initially did say he was having difficulty with his payment his end.
anyway, due to different factors (like his zip code within Zambia, and the fact that Covid is affecting the local post office) i then had to recalculate and got a final packaging price of £75 (from the UK)....£25 more than he has already paid.
As i thought he'd be upset i offered the buyer a refund. But he has told me he is happy to pay this amount.
It seems ludicrous that he is happy to pay three times value of guitar in postage. I have asked him if he cannot buy a guitar in Zambia....!
Is this buyer genuine? or could there be some scam possibly going on here?
I am worried slightly, that once i have posted the item the money paid by buyer will be taken back
