Buyer Protection

[booksntings]

Hi,

I have recently purchased an iphone 4s through ebid but the seller is insisting that i pay by bank transfer. If i do this is there anyway i can get my money back if it all go's wrong. I have tried paying through PPPay.com but the seller says it taked too long for them to withdraw the funds. Also i was going to but 2 of theese phones however when checking the IMEI numbers of them one of them are showing as blocked (reported Lost/Stolen) However the one i have said i will buy is not can some on please help

Also i was going to but 2 of theese phones however when checking the IMEI numbers of them one of them are showing as blocked (reported Lost/Stolen)

This alone would make me very worried

If I had to post a question on here in order to have it answered pertaining to a sale,
I'd just forget it

Be very careful with bank transfers.

You are the buyer.
You tell them how you want to pay.
They sound a bit dodgy.
I'd ask them for a reference.

That may be the idea of PPay - to make sure that you the buyer are happy!
