ebay pretty much makes it fool proof.. just post up the item, wait for bids, and don't ship until you receive money..

Pretty much this. It's hard to get scammed on ebay and not a whole lot of people do it

what about paypal and stuff? one of my biggest fears is somebody to take over one of my accounts and just steal my money and information, as is everybody's most likely.

Are you allowed to sell those on Ebay?


Anybody need a mate? I'm selling a date with my sister Kate. She lives in Kuwait.

Ebay owns Paypal. It's probably the most secure money transfer site out there. You won't get scammed just make sure that the item has been payed for before you ship and double check on your paypal account before you ship if you really want to. If someone asks to pay with a site that isn't paypal just tell them no and cancel the order. Reference: sold like 5k worth of stuff on ebay and have never been scammed or anything.
