Hi all -
picked up a bike on here which needs some attention/modification.
Currently set up 1x with a 42 and 11-25 which is no good for these parts. Ideally i'd like to put a 34 or 32T on the rear. Will a 5700 med cage do it. Any suggestions appreciated, possibly would consider a wider ranging cassette but guess there's not a suitable mech compatible with 105 5700 brifter pull?
Can swap for the SS one currently on!
cheers -

Yes, I saw a download/scan QR option but if it requires the buyer to get the seller to scan to confirm collection I can't see how this protects against the buyer simply deciding not to get the seller to scan when collecting, disappearing and claiming not to have collected? I'd say this definitely needs a bit more joined up thinking by PayPal/ebay. Maybe something that an automatic small non-refundable deposit is taken upon purchase (maybe 2%) and then funds are released with no protection for either party when the qr is scanned. This one just seems 'prime' for a fraudulent dispute initiated by the buyer
edit: I slightly misunderstood...I see that perhaps a term of sale is that the seller only lets the item go once the buyer has scanned to say they've received it. I'd hope at that point all buyer protection goes out the window but I'm not sure PayPal would see it like that.
Edit again: emphasis ("Please have the seller scan this") seems to be on the buyer instructing the seller to scan - should be the other way round surely?????

Yeah buyer seems ok now he's understood what I mean. It's not clear at all and most of the ebay boards say no buyer protection on collection items however PayPal says no seller protection in the case of a dispute when the item is collected or delivered in person. In all honesty I wouldn't fancy my chances if the guy paid goods/services, collected the kayak in person and then requested cancellation saying he hadn't been able to collect for example meanwhile my kayak's 800 miles away!

Listed a kayak - cash on collection only and messaged and interested party saying if he wanted it we'd arrange a deposit and then balance on collection. He's paid via PayPal (I'm not looking to circumnavigate paying any fees but I'm concerned that someone paying PayPal goods and services and collecting in person has even more 'scam potential' - what's to say they haven't collected it when they have?) How do I go about getting their contact details them without the ebay bots bashing me?

corrected now to show goods and services. obviously can see PayPal getting his money back, can't see for the life of me why they'd take it from me however or worst case eventually give it back to me as I've done everything by the book. I cannot for the life of me see how a 'genuine' fraudster could benefit from stealing someones PayPal details unless they 'got in' and changed the registered address - given that the person first asked me to send to a different address (more believable scam) unless a highly intuitive double bluff and by coincidence the occupants of the address/scammer having the same surname as the person who's details have been pinched i'd suggest it's unlikely. I can't see any way in which this could be a genuine dispute - can anyone else?
Edit - maybe their kid had bought something using their details - fine, send it back then!

Fingers crossed - I've forwarded screenshots to PayPal resolution centre showing original sale 3 months ago, the buyer requesting me to send to a different address (than his PayPal one) and royal mail delivery and signature confirmation. I mean - it'll be absurd if he gets his money back. I'd have thought if he hadn't authorised the purchase he may have mentioned it within the last 88 days since he received the item and maybe even returned it!!!

The good old 'case opened' email pops up 5 minutes ago. Not heard a squeak from this person since they bought it on FB Marketplace and I posted the item exactly as described the next day, signed for and shows as received/delivered 3 days after purchase on the 5th May. Anyway case opened and reason of - buyer didn't authorise this transaction.
Interesting further is that they paid goods/servoices and asked me to send the item to a different address than their PayPal registered one. Obviously I said I wouldn't (id refund and they could change address OR they could send friends and family). "No worries, it's my parents address where I used to live so you can just send it there."
3 months later and I get this kick in the balls - is this prick gonna get his money back and the item?
What IMP seat post topper do I need for a 2010 Scott Addict R3?
Thanks in advance
