Nothing wrong with trying to make a buck off it. But please don't make the mistake in thinking it is a risk free proposition though. Unless you are selling to someone you know and trust transactions can and do go wrong in these situations, at $1000 there will be quite a potential for a lot scammers seeking opportunity. |
you only accept through paypal and don't do anything till the payment goes through to your account.

As my friend found out that is no guarentee, if the account used for purchase is stolen the transaction can be reversed leaving you in a sh1tty position. While it may not end up costing you anything in the long run assuming you stick to all the policy rules you can end up with a lot of wasted time and time where you have neither money nor product.

his paypal account was hacked? That sucks. So the money was already transferred to him and someone took it back?

paypal took it back. He was paid via paypal from a verified account, however the account used to pay with was hacked/stolen so paypal reversed the payment even though the transaction had been completed, leaving him to argue with paypal to get his money. Eventually he got it back, but their are plenty of examples of people that didn't fare so well.
