Possible fraud by buyer | Members help members

Hello everyone,I just sold an item on eBay a moment ago, but now I’m a bit skeptical about the buyer and whether this could be fraud and if I should cancel the purchase.Here’s the situation:I listed a sealed cassette collection. The buyer offered me €2 more than the asking price and bought it. Now I’ve seen that the buyer is from China, but gave a German address — namely Euro Express GmbH in Wuppertal. A quick search showed that the company was already deleted from Northdata in 2020 and apparently has been mentioned more than once in connection with eBay fraud (buyer allegedly received false goods, etc.). At the same time, though, the buyer has almost 1,000 positive ratings, and further down in their profile there are even over 1,600 positive ratings, including some from Germany, and they’ve been active on eBay since 2014.I’m torn, since the many positive ratings speak for the seller and I could really use the money right now, but I’m skeptical because of this company and I don’t want to lose both the money and the cassettes. Has anyone here ever had anything to do with this buyer by chance? What would you do?
