FM marketplace or eBay/Vinted

I advertised something on FB marketplace but the lady who wants it is not local, she offered to pay postage but how do I go about it safely?

I am not too keen to share my bank details vie FB message.

Is there a safe way to do it? Or should I advertise on eBay? I don't have a Vinted a/c or maybe I should ..?

Marketplace is unregulated and I’ve seen so many scams on there (cars or high priced items for much less than they should be).

she could be genuine but it is up to her to organised shipping eg through Shipley for a very large item or you can get a postage quote and add it on but I don’t think Facebook would step in if needed

Vinted - it’s easy and costs you nothing. Very simple to do. Have sold on Facebook before and used Vinted when they want it posting.

Thank you both, will set up an account and re-advertise and let her know.
