I've asked bidders on my listings to email me before bidding if they have less than 10 feedback.
I've just noticed that someone has put a bid which has met the reserve on one of my items but he has 0 feedback. He hasn't emailed me prior to bidding. He has been a member for 8 months.
The item is collection only so anyone bidding is likely to be local to me. Last winning bidder had FB score of 4 and emailed me before bidding, I checked where he lived (5 miles away) and said OK bid away.
Not sure what to do with this guy. Don't want to irritate him as I really need to sell this but at he same time I don't want a genuine bidder to lose out if he wins and turns out to be a scammer.
Do I email him and politely ask him to somehow (?) prove to me he is a genuine bidder. If he's not particularly local then I've no real idea of what to do. Its a high value item and I always get too cagey when selling them. If is was something cheaper I would let it go.
Advice please from anyone with brain which more in gear than mine
