Sold a bike with an ebay auction over the weekend.
I listed in the ad to pay by cash in person on pickup, in the description.
My mistake, but I must have left the option to also pay by paypal on the item.
The seller has jumped to paying by paypal and wants to pick up first thing tomorrow.
I am a little wary:
As a seller - the bike is mint. Was hoping to get more for it. As described, nothing wrong with her, its a bargain.
My main concern is handing over the item (will have to be done in person), and then the buyer somehow revokes the paypal transaction afterwards. From my side, nothing wrong with the item at all, but from the stories – I feel ebay might be more on side with the buyer than the seller. They could say the item was damaged or not as described, and then I lose money?
Am I being paranoid? Something just seems a little off.

I am a little wary:
- I find it odd that they paid without first coming to have an inspection, or without asking me more detailed Qs.
- They have been on eBay for a year, no negative feedback, but only a couple of small purchases with good feedback
