I had an auction won by a buyer in China. Almost 500 pos. feedbacks, no negs. Has purchased from all over the world. I take Paypal from US, UK and Canada, and other auctions by request only.With postage will be about $50.

He sounds good to me. I probably would.

There is always the problem of delivery though so give that some thought & decide if you want to risk 50.00 & the item.

So far it looks like his purchases are reaching him.

I had a couple of buyers from China about 6 months ago. All sorts of suspicious data...funny address, incomplete name, etc. They wanted to pay with PayPal...I e-mailed and said "NO"...only BidPay or US money order. Got several e-mails back from them and I relented and accepted their payments. The good news is that it all turned out fine. They received the items, payment was good and feedback positive. I WAS really leery and suspicious. The items were a bit pricey and you'll have to decide what's right for you. But, based on what you said, he sounds OK and legit.

Thanks for the responses. Yes, he had emailed and seems fine. He's English (like me), but working in China. I don't take too many Paypal payments from International buyers, but some seem fine.
