Buyer NOW wants to inspect the goods before he pays. I dont think that is right.

That sort of thing is usually only organised before placing a bid by asking the seller, but if it's all is as described and photographed in the auction, then there shouldn't be any problems. If you'd rather insist on payment first, just let the buyer know.

I let them, in fact I encourage it. It gives you a chance to interact with them, show them a good time and be genial, then you are much, much less likely to deal with buyers remorse post sale.

I feel, that by just letting them look, if they decide its not as described or whatever and dont want to go through with the sale, its some much easier to deal with it then and there, rather than mucking about afterwards doing a refund, then contacting customer support to get a red face removed ...
