It has been for quite a while now, but especially the last 2-3 weeks. I've been trying to sell my phone on eBay but the winning bidder is always a Nigerian scammer.
Is it possible to block bidders with lets say less than 5 feedback? I know its possible to block feedback with less than 0 feedback but im not sure about 5.
At least then I know that when my phone sells its most probably not a scammer.
Cheers.

Isn't there a feature to only sell to pre-approved bidders only? That way, they have to email you before they can bid.
Don't how it fully works though, I just assume that's the idea.

What is it with nigerians and mobile phone scams?
Its all they seem to do!

Go to your 'My eBay' page. In the 'Preferences' section, look for 'Buyer requirements', click on 'edit' and tick the box next to where it says 'Block buyers who are registered in countries to which I don't ship.'
Then when you set up the auction, tick the boxes only for the countries you're willing to send it to, or make it a UK-only auction. Then the Nigerian scammers can't bid.

Although i've seen a load of sellers listed as, Item Location: Hong Kong, United Kingdom.
Wookie, i've tried that but the Nigerians are clever - they register fake addresses on eBay and then send you the Nigerian address via e-mail.
This is one reason why eBay suck. Why allow people to register fake addresses??
Paypal suck too.

Have you tried this? It might solve it since they have to contact you first.

I would try it, but I cant find the feature. :(
Oh, can't help you on that one then - I've never sold through eBay, I just know such a feature exists...
I'm just annoyed by ebay when I sell 3 dvds and get £1.99 for them all.
Bah!
Bah!
