The Speedometer according to OP is located in Europe. Pretty big place isn't it?

By the time any buyer paypals the money you'll be patiently waiting for your tracking number if they'll give you one.

Hopefully clears customs. Doesn't get lost, damaged,

Hopefully IF you get it is in good shape, working as described.

And you only have 30 days for this.

NO buyer protection. 0. Too risky.

Sell it locally. Wherever that is.

Agree Fuch paypal

All because I have a low post count. I don’t get it either!

If we listen to the sceptics or the scare senario 2.7RS wrote above, none of us would buy through the internet or use PayPal and the Postal service again.

Ive bought from and sold to North America plenty of times with no issue.

Agreed... a rare part at a fair price.

eBay is always a last resort for me, I’d rather offer it to likeminded enthusiasts first.

As mentioned above, if a buyer uses their card to make the Paypal payment, then the way it works where I live, the buyer is also protected through their card issuer.

I also got burned once on some computer equipment I bought on eBay - the seller never shipped the goods, and the seller had no funds in their Paypal account - I didn't get a refund. I had paid the seller from my Paypal balance, not from my card.

I spoke to my bank about it, and they told me that if I pay for goods via Paypal and use my card as the funding source for the payment, then if the seller doesn't deliver and the seller has no funds in their Paypal account for Paypal to do a refund from, then I contact my bank and the bank reverses the card transaction. So the bank takes the money back from Paypal and credits the funds back to my card.

Since that incident, whenever I buy parts using Paypal I never pay from my Paypal balance - I always select my card as the payment source for the payment via Paypal.

That way it is no different to any other time I use my card, and I have protection from my card issuer.

to any prospective buyer : i travel to Amsterdam twice a month - if it helps, i would meet with the seller and verify the existence of the part and/or assure that it is shipped.

… just a suggestion as I have been following this … post a couple photos right here on this post ... as perhaps some folks do not want to download anything after aging to your photo link in order to see the photos ….

I agree. That last set of images knocked the ad out of the park. Nice all around. Nice to see it work out.
