Risk vs reward I guess is in order.

Why would a person try to scam you over $8? I don't see the benefit
unless there is something I am missing. If you use the global shipping
program through ebay, doesn't that remove your responsibility for anything
other than shipping it to ebay? They then forward to international shippers.
