EBay Classifieds PayPal?

I'm selling my Xbox One on eBay classifieds. Someone has reported with a good price, he is ready to pay in advance via PayPal, are there any risks for me as a seller and what do I have to consider?

Yo. He says he didn't get anything and there were stones in the package.

Classified ads = collection only, statistically there are more fraudsters than honest users

In 95% of cases an attempt is made to defraud classified advertisements on Ebay with a PayPal payment.

Would eBay be better to "pay securely"?

Not really because it protects the buyer more than you do the seller.

the safest option is collection or bank transfer.

There's really nothing more to say about it.

And if you still really want to send:

Only offer payment by SEPA transfer to your account.
Do not offer a "secure payment" function.
Don't offer PayPal; not by goods and services, not by family & friends, not at all.
Do not react to alleged emails from banks, but only send them after you have convinced yourself that the money has actually been received.
Only send with tracked delivery.

You can also withdraw a bank transfer, right?

No.

Great the customer is ready to pay by bank transfer and wants my IBAN, is that safe for me?

Super thank you!

Yes that's safe for you as long as you wait until the money is in your bank account

Okey, as soon as the amount has been received in my online banking can I send?

Correctly

Thank you very much for the information!

Very much.

The combination "eBay Classifieds + Paypal" is a paradise for fraudsters!

The sellers in particular are often ripped off.

Why do you want to take such a risky action voluntarily?
