I apologise if this is in the wrong section ... please feel free to move it mods.

I am currently in the middle of negotiating a sale on these forums for an ipad - see the link here ...

I am based in Cheshire, with the seller being based in London.

As we are talking about a decent wad of money, I was wondering if TP offers (or knows of any) buyer / seller protection schemes ? having done several trades on TP before, I know a lot of it is based on trust, but I have always met people locally for sales that were of large amounts of money.

As far as I can see on paypal, the protection scheme only covers purchases made on EBay. Does anyone know of anything different ?

I am hoping to get this sorted as I really want the item, but am (maybe too?) cautious due to the monies involved!

Cheers

If the seller is trade then maybe you could buy by credit card? that way you do get some help from the credit card company if things go t*ts up.

Don't know if the Post office still do cash on delivery (C.O.D)????
