actually, the seller send the package to the specified courier, but upon check up by the courier, the box contained DOG FOOD instead of the cell phone -- imagine?! kaloko talaga yung british na yun! di namin alam if it was the seller or the courier.

anyway, he cant do anything nemor, accept nalang the fact na naloko sya. twas a VERY EXPENSIVE LESSON for him. i think now, he already have a paypal.
Did he bought an insurance for the goods? Its a good practice to have an insurance to protect your package. To avoid scam on ebay everything you do, communication, ask sellers question must be done thru ebay. Do not give any information outside ebay, sometimes sellers asked private auction or transaction or giving you a good price that sounds good to be true. Beware of those, they are most likely a SCAM.
