    With the same buyer?

    It's not to say that there aren't any legit buyers from abroad. But chances of getting taken advantage of is higher in an open ad or forum. Platforms such as eBay, Paypal, et al. have mechanisms in place to protect both sellers and buyers. Even so, you still occasionally hear of people getting scammed on eBay. The difference is, more often than not, those incidents are often eventually resolved.

    I once was able to get my money back from Paypal when the item I ordered from HK never arrived. The seller weren't responding to my messages so I opened up a dispute on Paypal, which got his attention. For the record, he wasn't scamming me.... the item eventually arrived after 5 months through regular post. I paid back the refunded money as soon as I received the item.

    South African countries are a dead giveaway for scammers ... their internet cafes are filled with people who just scam all day ... it's like in some parts of Nigeria, their most common work is piracy ... some parts of South Africa have scamming as main line of work ...
