Higgo, this has scam written all over it, he’s talking about a collection agent, his English is poor (not always a guarantee but, as all the words are spent correctly I’d suggest it’s a pre written text taken from a translation site), he has given you paypals sales pitch, rather than just asking is you are ok using paypal.
Good eBay feedback? That can be bought too, do a search… Or just a group of scammers working to up each others feedback.
Bet you he asks to ‘pay’ more than the asking price then you refund the difference in cash to the ‘collection agent’
Your thought that he might just have more money in paypal? Why can’t he transfer to his bank then pay you cash?
I really can’t stress how much you shouldn’t be dealing with this guy unless you actually meet, face to face. There will be other buyers along soon enough.
EDIT balls! Thought Edds mail was the mail the OP got…. Sentiments stand though!
