Ive sold boatloads of stuff on ebay... nothing international though...

Now theres a buyer in hongkong who wants to buy around $1000 worth of stuff from me, confirmed address, with 120 positive feedback @100%.

Is there anything I should be weary of or make sure I do so that I dont get burnt on this?

Thanks!

Ive never had any problems. Just get the money before you actually send it

Send it USPS with insurance if possible.

Be sure to tell the buyer that he will have to pay any duties or customs fees applicable to get them into his country.

How much $ value and weight are we talkin?

Make sure you get insurance on the stuff you are selling, for your own sake.Also, make sure you get a tracking number, and get the buyer to sign on delivery.All these things can be used as evidence to paypal if the buyer opens a dispute. This way you will be totally covered.
