Hello, I'll join the discussion. I had an item sell recently. I started to phone individual buyers to ensure they can be reached at their provided telephone number. I have recently bought and sold on e-Bay, and of about 40 transactions, there were about 5 scams. I detected 3 before any damage was caused, I lost $ 710.00 US which PayPal reimbursed, and 1 other of which the facts I forgot. Anyway, back to "I have a FedEx account, can you ship". My phone call and later e-mails gave me a sense that this person was "legit". I agreed to have FedEx pick up the item, I signed for the item, and have a FedEx receipt. However, before I would recommend using a buyer's shipper, I would have to scrutinize the person very carefully. Unfortunately, it's too bad there are so many scammers out there. I hope I helped a little, Stacey Bindman Montreal,Quebec
