I trust in you

Nice buying from you...
I clearly stated in the listing I will not ship out of the country. I sent an email to ebay but I'm looking to see what I can get done today. So what would you recommend I do?

 
So did he send you the money. Keep the money and tell him to learn how to read lol. But seriously if he sent the money through paypal just hit the refund button then file a claim with ebay to get your selling fees reimbursed then sell you item again.

 
i say ship it to the guy that bought it and he can ship that **** out to whoever it was a gift for or wutever. i stated that u don't ship outta the country not ur fault he doesn't know how to read!

 
There is no money in my paypal account. I recieved this email from paypal:

Dear ******* ,This email is sent to you to get you informed that a payment has been made for an item bought from you, from one of our client "******". So we request that you ship the item in the next 24 hours and send the shipments tracking number to us so that we can verify that the item has been shipped, as fund will be credited into your account and any effort not to do so will cause the stoppage of your money until we verified you have sent the item to the address provided.

This is just to make sure that both the buyer and seller are satisfied and to protect them from been fraudulent transaction.

This PayPal® payment has been deducted from the buyer's account and has been "APPROVED" but will not be credited to your account until the shipment tracking number is sent to us for shipment verification so as to secure both the buyer and the seller. Below are the necessary information requested before your account will be credited. Send tracking number to us or email us through this mail trackingteam@email.com and our customer service care representative will attend to you.

**PLEASE NOTE**

This is what I was thinking of doing because his ebay address is in america so I was thinking of just sending it there.

It's a scam...fake paypal e-mail...same exact thing happened to me when i was selling my 360 on ebay.

do not ship the laptop until you have money in your paypal.

 
uhmmm.. do you think you are special? nigeria + paypal fck folks out of their money on the daily.

go ahead, be nieve. don't bish later though. give a refund and relist it.

 
Tell him you didnt get any money and if you dont hear back from him in however many days it says you give people to pay for the item file an ebay claim and re list your item that simple.
