Sale and scam | Community Mentor Help

Hello, I want to share my experience so this doesn’t happen again. I sold a high-value camera. After receiving the eBay notification saying the item had sold, the buyer gave me their address in Italy. I then shipped the package, which was indeed received by the buyer. However, the payment was never made, because my account was still awaiting payment. Being new to eBay, I naively thought that the “payment pending” status meant I had to wait for the package to be received before confirming the transaction. But that’s not the case at all! This experience taught me to always check that payment is confirmed before shipping an item, even if eBay says the sale is confirmed.
