Sold a laptop on ebay

well, most people...myself included, wont ship outside the US. Too many potential problems and headaches, plus trying to deal with more paperwork. That guy should have tested it once he received it and before he forwarded it. Be as polite as possible in your correspondence and tell him you will be more than happy to refund the amount once the item is received by you. Don't even get into the whole "it was working" bit with him for such a small amount of money. Chances are he wont produce the item and it will just go away. If he gives you bad feedback I think you can appeal it with ebay easily. good luck

This is actually first I had a problem outside the usa and I actually had no idea it was getting shipped from florida to the carribean according to what ebay said some do that to save on shipping but they agreed with me that from florida to carribeans is out of my hands. He wants a bigger partial refund instead of shipping it back since it would cost him $25 to do so and he knows im not required to refund that.
