You would be crazy to ship that phone. International and no feedback is really bad news. Wait 3 days, ebay will cancel their account by then.

I would cancel the transaction asap.


+1 I've had international ebay members screw me over in the past with electronics I sold, iPhone, sidekick lx, and NOW I only sell to us good old Americans, in the lower 48 states.

I would not send it.

They probably used a stolen card,

OR, will file a claim for their money back as soon as you ship.

Ebay IS all about buyers right now..... I hope this warning isn't too late.

Don't do it!!!

Here is the link.

What concerns me is that the buyer has no feedback at all.

Buyer is asking me to ship USPS express mail international to the Philippines.

I'm excited...yet oh so nervous that I'm getting screwed somehow....

BTW..this is my wife's preorder...I refuse to sell mine :)

Uh oh, a person bought my iPhone 4 pre order for $1000 and it's also express mail to the phillipines.

EBay account was from FL, and he paid too... But pay pal opened a dispute and froze the money and is waiting his response. It's been 3 days and no response from buyer. Paypal also advised to not ship! Too good to be true!

Yyquui is the username, is that the same as yours?
 
OOOOKKKKKK......

100% a scam. PayPal just reversed the transaction.

100% NOT selling the iPhone. Wife will be happy :)

THANKS GUYS!!!!

Not the same, but I think it was something like that.
 
This thread made me a bit wary of a listing I currently have on eBay. I am selling my HTC Incredible and porting to AT&T to get the iPhone. I've never sold anything on eBay before. Am I able to wait until I receive the payment before shipping? Like, can I see it in my bank account and then ship it? Am I able to cancel bids that have a feedback of 0?

they reversed it without you asking them to refund the money? The guy just pulled it out or Paypal detected fraud and canceled? Enjoy the phone. Not worth the headache.

They auto-reversed it and sent me an email saying that they detected fraud.
 
Same thing happened to me when I sold my 3G. Ebayer made a payment with PayPal with a confirmed account, but wanted to send to a unconfirmed address. The payment was legitimate at the time or so I thought. But the account was hijacked, someone stole someones user id and password to Paypal and made a unauthorized payment.
 
I might sell my Iphone 4 on Ebay if the prices get crazy. What would I need to do to the Iphone to sell it? I wouldn't want to give someone a phone with my account still linked to it haha. Would I need to activate it then take the sim out?

Glad you were able to remove your clown suit before it was too late. :)
