I actually like Ebay. You just need to buy from a reliable and well known seller with good reviews. Never buy from an individual seller.

If there's a dispute, eBay would deal with it for you. I buy my laptops from Ebay

I buy my Pixel 6 from individual seller for eBay. The guy get good reviews from the few personal items him don sell in the past years.

Omo, the phone be like phone wey the guy never use before. I'm really enjoying it.

That's why I said it might be genuine but I would run. If there's a fault with phone, he wouldn't change it for you cos he is not real seller as such. I have also heard about situations where they sell these phones and go to report it stolen so as to get a replacement from insurance. The phone sold would now be bricked.

Isn't that too much evil? Like this my phone that comes with box. There's evidence of payment on eBay and the logistics company. Looks like too much traces oo.

That's the easiest way to fall into scam. I have seen some people who have no history of selling anything on there listing the latest iPhone. They might be genuine but I would run.

As long as you bought and paid through eBay you will get your money back scam or no scam.

Yes i will pay by bank transfer rather than cash or Paypal.

What are you afraid of by paying by bank transfer?

I'm always wary of doing bank transfers. If the guy is dodgy, drug dealer or financing terrorism, you'd now be subjected to a rigorous forensic audit having paid him before. Even though, you'd be exonerated, you would have to prove your non relationship with the person over and over. A mischievous one could even say you're one of their drug customers.

Bank transfer is the only receipt you have if anything goes wrong with that transaction. Cash payment leaves you exposed. Meeting at town centre or park to carry out cash transaction implies that you are not innocent.

Just imagine if 15yr old girl save money,fly out of the country, join the group.
Now she won waka back come UK after all the atrocity.may be she think say she & the prodigal son na the same.
If they giv her the citizenship,it will motivate others to join other groups.
Regardless of ethnicity, religion,gender mak people shun terrorism.

1. She was born here, never been to Bangladesh in her life. She was radicalised in the UK at 15 years old ie a child. Why does the UK get to export this frankenstein that they nurtured? I say bring her home ,investigate her part in IS and throw her in jail.

2. Bangladesh has said she will face the death penalty if she enters the country. She is now stateless. The UK knew that removing her citizenship would make her stateless and did it anyway.

3. I am a bit worried as it appears there are 2 tiers of citizenship. An irrevocable and a revocable one.
How many generations down the line will my offspring have to be to acquire this irrevocable citizenship.

These are the 3 major arguments i have heard against the government's position.I havent read her lawyers argument so there may be more.It's a Landmark case and will likely get to the Supreme Court.

I haven't addressed "supporting terrorism" as I believe its too easy to disprove that theory.

In most countries, if not all, there are usually 2 tiers of citizenship. So, it is not strange. Have you ever been excluded from a project because you have dual citizenship? It happens a lot. It is not peculiar to the UK alone.

We all know she will not really go to "jail". She will instead be protected with new identity and tax payer's money. We don't even want terrorists in UK's jail as a lot of people get brainwashed in jail.

I have no sympathy for terrorists. Did you hear her first interview? Syria is good. Let her stay there. It will at least teach others like her not to get themselves brainwashed. I am sure those that were victims of Manchester Arena bombing will not share the same view as you.

How is it UK's fault that she got brainwashed? It's not the fault of her parent but the fault of the country? Where is the place of parenting?

She deserves the death penalty as do all terrorists. She's lucky she only gets to be stateless.

The point about the UK nurturing a Frankenstein is very dramatic but dramatically pointless as well. As the judges said, she made the choice to go where she did and do what she did. There are millions of other people around her age in the UK who did not choose to go be part of a group best known for decapitating innocents, so it's illogical to claim the UK is responsible for her waywardness.

The UK did not make her stateless. She is entitled to Bangladeshi citizenship and is free to go claim it whenever she chooses to. Your logic is like saying a child that refuses to go home because the parents say they'll punish him is homeless. She's stateless now because she's not willing to face the consequences of her actions. That's another choice she has made and continues to make, independent of the UK.

As has been said earlier, the whole two tiers of citizenship thing is a fact of life that exists in all countries, and understandably so. It has little to do with discrimination and is perfectly logical.

It's truly strange but makes sense when one understands that it's all just virtue signaling - people taking absurd stances to show they're more moral than others, knowing full well that they'll never be affected by the consequences of what they're promoting.

That's something that runs through a large amount of far-left lunacy, but that's a topic for another day.

You need to. That's what they put on your license.

Go into a mall or post office and use one of those photo booths. Costs ~ 7 quid.
