Since the last buyer came with 50 pound fake notes and he still calls me late at night asking rude questions. I have requested personal support and I was approved to use Buyer/Seller Protection Program. Here is how the process works through the Buyer Protection Program:

- I'll make the private listing on eBay for you,
- you go and buy it through their website,
- you have to pay for the item to eBay so they can secure the funds,
- they confirm me that they received the funds,
- I`ll start the delivery
- When you confirm to ebay that you received it, you have two options. Option 1: I received it and its in perfect order the transactions is a success and I get my money, or option two but I don`t think you will use this one, you will contact ebay and tell them you can`t keep it. They will refund you the money and thats it. end of the deal.
Once this is in place you can see the boat and still be able to pull out if you don't like it

You will be able to order a vehicle status report on the ebay listing if you have any doubts.

Everything is covered by eBay. I will get paid only after you confirm that you received the delivery. I need your full name and a mobile number to forward them to ebay and so you will be registered in the buyer protection program. When you will be registered ebay will get back to you with the rest of the steps
Let me know if this is acceptable. Thank you

Hello, We were celebrating my son exams, sorry for the delay.
Its still for sale. Immaculate condition, no damages, once with the boat you will also get all the equipment my husband had it also includes the trailer. All necessary documents available. I just moved back to Dundee after the death of my husband, I was left with the boat. Price £5500 delivered at my costs. Are you familiar to eBay? I will list the boat on eBay Motors for the £5500 buy it now price and I will send you a link to my auction, so you can buy it immediate.
As soon as you will confirm the payment to eBay, I will proceed delivery without any additional costs for you.
In case you are not familiar with them just tell me you are interested and I`ll ask them to send you the same certificate they sent me and you will see that they cover 100% the transaction done through them up to £50,000. You will receive the boat with all the documents. As you know eBay is the best company of online transactions. If indeed interested in buying it and have the funds, I will list it on eBay, as I have a 100% positive feedback with them.
Please let me know your decision.
Thank you

  • this is a common scam Ebay does not offer buyer protection for boats because the risk it too high Square Trade Is the one whom offers buyer protection for boats Just Block this user from emailing you they want you to basically give them your money for nothing and keep in mind anything over the amount of 100 Pounds is a felony thats why the 50 pound note thing so they are playing it safe Just block them
