Buyer has issues with own eBay account

[lianguy]

Hi friends, 

anyone encountered a buyer with an eBay account issue where they can’t select buy now or make an offer?

The buyer is saying that in order to set you up for a scam.

Come back here as things progress.

With an 8k item it won't be the last attempt.

If you have your buyer blocks in place (which you should do for an expensive item like that) then it's possible the buyer has strikes for non-payment and can't make an offer/buy.
