I'd like to hear other seller's experiences and procedures with selling to buyers in other countries where PayPal does not give you seller protection. I just sold something to someone in Australia and Singapore. They both paid through PayPal. Their feedback was 100%, but the Singapore guy is buying a $400 camera, had lots of older transactions and "private" item sales, though to his credit he did email me first and ask about forms of payment and what the shipping would be.

Am I taking too much of a risk? I haven't shipped the camera yet. I'm concerned that they could do a chargeback via PayPal. Any way I could protect myself other than not ship it and give them a refund? How do other sellers handle international sales? Money orders? I've never had a problem before but they've always been smaller sales, or I spot a fraud (like the Indonesian scams) before it happens.

Thanks.
