Sold an item on ebay to AISHAKAM DESIGN COMPANY 412 Roncesvalles Ave, Unit #159 Toronto ON M6R 2N2 Canada?

I sold an item on ebay and they have 11 positive feedback and all the sellers are from Chine/Hongkong saying fast payment or received payment fast, great buyer, great communication in on day or on Dec 17 2013. This buyer said he wanted to send me a check or wire to me here in USA and I said fine but I won't send item until payment clears and all is good and he was fine with that. I have then asked him why is he not paying by paypal and he said because of tax reasons or it's the end of year and wants to send cash or check to avoid taxes under his company. The buyer and I have been communicating well. What should I do? If this is a scam then way send me a check only to have it bounce and get no item, waste of time and their money.?

I just found this...

I sold a $3K watch on Ebay and the buyer suggested that they pay by a wire. I shipped the watch and now the original check has bounced. My fault is that I did not check whether that was a wire or a deposit. I know, classic. It turns out that the payment was a check deposited that now has bounced back 13 days later. Chase (my bank) reps they that the foreign checks have no time frame deadline to be returned back. Here is the original info on the buyer:
Check issued by:
Aishakam Design Company
2361 Lakeshore Blvd Apt 311
Toronto, ON M8V 1B7

Address to ship:
Mari Rasti
2400 Midland AVE Unit 112

Any suggestions, people? Thank you. Val.

Scam artist. The Seller deposits the check, even pull the cash out. The buyers waits to receive the goods, then the buyer cancels their foreign check.

The Seller's bank then puts them on the hook for the funds.

STAY AWAY FROM THIS SCAM ARTIST
