What to do about a Half.com Sale?

[leftwing1018]

So, I made a sale on half.com last night and there are just a couple things that seem suspicious. (Textbook - $90)

- The buyer does not have any feedback. (that's fine, whatever)
- The account is now closed... (next to username - Not a Registered User)

Seems odd that they would close their account immediately after buying.... Should I include Signature Confirmation to be safe? I just don't want to be screwed out of $90...

Has anyone had this kind of thing happen to them before?

EDIT: Thanks for the help. (Please Close Thread)

- He marked the item as being received, when I have not even shipped it out yet...

I'm assuming that payment has already been sent to half.com but it seems a little odd to me. Should I include Signature Confirmation to be safe? I just don't want to be screwed out of $90...

I would be careful just in case.

well the money has already been sent hasnt it? (My Payment History has it Pending) So even if they dont have an account I should still get it right?

I wouldn't overreact. "Not A Registered User" can mean bad things (they were de-registered by eBay because they did something wrong), but it can also simply mean they registered only at Half.com and not eBay itself. The first is obviously bad, but the second case isn't, so make sure you know which one you are dealing with before doing anything. Check this page out for help -

Thanks for that! I'm assuming those people are right and it is just someone that just made a half.com

Still going to use Sig Confirmation just in case, and wait a couple days before shipping. But I really appreciate the help GF_Eric!

^ Oh okay, I'll check that out now. Thanks[/QUOTE]

They protect buyers out the yin-yang.

Even with DC that guy will get his money back if he says he never got the item.

I'd say you're right-on in being suspicious.
