What are the possible pitfalls of selling an item to overseas - Kenbob - 21-04-23

hi all.
I have a buyer for an item i’m Selling who lives in another country.
He is quite persistent about buying the item but I have reservations.
Have any of you foccers sent stuff abroad and had bother or success.
I’m concerned about being scammed over payment into my bank account.

I'm no expert on this, so check carefully, but I believe that if they make payment via Wire Transfer (eg Western Union), then once you accept the money, it can't be reversed.

If the concern is there, don't do it. Because if anything goes wrong it will be a world of pain.

is it high value? If not could you afford to lose the money?
If in doubt, dont do it.

It’s value is £1400 and it’s a limited addition watch that I was bought new and never worn.
Unlikely to find another in unused condition.
