which was a unit on an industrial estate and smelt a rat when he asked me
to state on the package it was a gift ...so when he claimed it had not
arrived after a few weeks, I sent him an email saying I would inform customs
namimg him and the LP as they had probably more than likely lost it
within a couple of hours he miraculously recieved the LP .....
So if he gets the item then claims it was charged to a stolen / lost credit card he will get his money back and you will get nothing refunded, as you were sent a gift not payment for an item.
If he is willing to do PPG just get him to do a bank transfer or a transferwise transfer, here:

Thanks all.

Hi ReeceH, robdevil is correct. As there is no PayPal Buyer Protection on personal payment (friends and family) a dispute for non receipt of an item or a dispute for an item significantly not as described cannot be opened. However It is possible to open a claim for an unauthorised transaction.19 Mar 2015
If it’s under 150£ and the seller is happy, I’ll ask to send direct to Italy. My own anxiety and paranoia does make the whole thing a little heavy. Yes, the uk system is cheaper and reliable, but the Italian one has improved immensely in the last ten years. I live in downtown bologna and there is always a delivery van making their rounds in my street any minute of the day. It had a bad rep in the past but delivery is good now.
Bank transfer (bonifico bancario) costs extra but would be more of a challenge for a conman. Shock horror: Banks here are better than the uk. For example: Any transfer over 1000 has to be alerted to the finance police. Sorry, the british banks are a bit Wild West compared to Italy.
Final opinion: if you don’t feel like suffering the anxiety, don’t. You’ll find a buyer closer to home.
There are a lot of buyers in Italy.........my old teacher was an Italian living in London for 4 years and he was fascinated by shops like Coda,Peach and Andertons ........always saying that there was nothing like them in Italy and how difficult it was to get good gear.............he was from Napoli and worked mainly in Rome not some hick little Town....
He used to buy and sell on here and still does from time to time even tho he has moved back to Rome
I suspect your buyer is genuine and keen and will agree to trust you with a bank transfer

May take a few days to get your account validated, so open it as soon as possible. Best exchange rates of any of the comparable companies.
Money transferred from your bank is with them almost instantly. Transfer to recipient takes one to two days.
I have more problems shipping to NI than I do Italy.
