Hi there, i understand your concern.   I'm fairly new to ebay and paypal, but I will try to answer, or at least give you some suggestion/idea to think about.   I have seen on ebay you can set up a private listing....or at least that what it looks like.   This is what I would do...   set up the ad as a private listing on ebay with 'buy it now' option, email the intended buyer with the ebay item number. make sure to put payment option as go through checkout and paypal only. Make sure the address you will be sending it to is ONLY the address that has been CONFIRMED and Verified for the Buyers account.   Once funds are cleared, I would post it using a fully tracked postage with delivery signature upon delivery so he has to sign for it, forget how much it costs, if this is something very valuable, its worth paying that extra money in postage.. Obviously keep the proof of postage and enter all the tracking details on ebay AND Paypal.   If he makes a dispute or requests refund after he has received it, you should then be covered by ebay and paypal, and they should, i would hope, investigate. You will have all your evidence, etc etc, and if they can't help, then I would report him to the police for Theft and Fraud.   Good luck and hope this helps. ... View more

Hi guys, I just need a little help here.   Ive recently started up a business. The items I sell on my website is of quite high value.   All bespoke items made to order. ranging from £32,999 up to £88,000, so yes quite exspensive. Its aimed at those obv with a little money already in their bank accounts.   The idea is that the customer pays the amount in full, allowing me to then make the order for their bespoke item, which is then delivered to them within 8 weeks.   I have integrated buttons with drop down price options, no price options etc, and found it quite easy.   However, the only problem is, the maximum single transaction limit is £5500!!! I need this to be £32,999 or more, depending on what the customer chooses.   The only way I have found so far, is to put the price of the items at the £5500 max, then charge the rest as packaging (this is given to you if you already know, as an optio when creating your buttons), so then the packaging costs £27,999.   Ive then had to put a paragraph on my website explaining that the £5500 is the first part of the payment, which I would have to use anyway to put down a deposit to get their bespoke item made anyway, and then also state to the customer, that the remaining is classed as packaging, of £xx,xxx amount to fulfil the cost of the item. However, it just looks ridiculous! And obviously its gona put people off, and make them think Its a scm, but its not, its just the case that I really don't know any other way of doing it....   Im thinking maybe, is it because my account is premier, maybe i need to upgrade to business, would this allow me to accept higher amount per single transaction of say upto £25,000??? Im not sure, please could someone advise me.   Ive looked into other payment processors, but they don't seem to either or they are just too exspensive for me at this time.   Please someone, HELP!   Thanks ...
