Pay after delivery

Hi All. Can someone please give me some advice. I am fairly new to this. I have been offered a motorcycle at what I think is a bargain price. The motorcycle is located in Grimsby but the owner is working in Spain. He has advertised the bike on ebay via a friends ebay account. He wants to sell the bike for £2700 plus £100 delivery. He said he would like it if I paid via paypal on a pay after delivery option.

 

Will I be covered if the bike doesn't turn up.

 

Thanks for any advice

John.

No don't do it, apart from the fact you will have 0 buyer protection for a motor vehicle this sounds like one of paypals many SCAMS.

Hi Kernowlass.

 

Thank you very much, I will take your advice. I suppose the old saying is true, If It sounds to good to be true, then it probably is.

 

Many thanks

John.
