Don't be tempted to move the money anywhere. Moving £ which you have reason to believe may be the "proceeds fo crime" is an offence!

That being said, any other funds in there which are not from this transaction i'd shift out and do whatever else you can to protect yourself and then just sit tight.

Has he sent any postal details yet?

Also could call Ebay as email may be in a queue.

I think the scam is you send the lapies and he will get his money back from paypal and you loose both
