Ahoy guys, so I'm selling a mobile phone on ebay, this is the first time I've done this, but I'm just wondering - what's to stop the buyer paying through paypal, receiving the phone, and then going back to paypal and saying it's broken or not as described or something? Would Paypal reverse the transaction and they'd keep the phone?

You have to accept paypal on eBay, its part of the selling terms now.
To be honest I wouldnt waste your time selling phones on eBay.. 99.9% chance of being scammed.

Really? Had no problems with my other transactions.
Do you mean 99.9% chance of being scammed by the way I mentioned?

People are always complaining about some dick bidding their phone up to £500 more than its worth then asking them to send it to Nigeria.

Don't bother
I sold a w910i and the buyer then proceeded to break it, then sent it back to me and claimed the monety back
