Help me understand seller protection when using Gumtree

[tkerby91]

Hi all,

Hope you're well!

I have a question, I did look on the help section, but I couldn't find a definitive answer. 

If I sell something on gumtree (a phone worth 500 or something) what sort of protection do I have if any? In the UK and it's a personal account. 

I've been sceptical as someone used fraud to buy a computer I sold on Ebay once and I lost the money and the laptop!

There is a section on seller protection in paypals user agreement. So you need to read up on it so you can risk assess your transactions.
