Might sound abit extreme but i had my GF take a picture of us both (with him holding the item) a signiture on a piece of paper wont be worth much if he says "i never signed anything"

the camera never lies :)
I dont sell backups but if I buy them i destroy them within 24 Hour

I strongly advise you do not let them pick it up if they have paid by paypal.

Paypal will not care if you have a picture, receipt etc, they will side with the buyer if you have no proof of postage.

Maybe ask them to bring cash on arrival, and you'll refund the paypal.
I don't buy or sell backups.

No way would I let someone pick up an item paid via paypal, thats just asking for trouble.
Any purchases made by me are on the grounds that I own the original, if not the backup will be destroyed within 24 hours.

that is cos you are honest. Some people are not honest and in my opinion its not worth the risk. If he is coming to collect ask for cash on collection. Then your covered at least.

Same as above, it's just asking for trouble.

Refund the guy via paypal and tell them you want to do COD. If they're an honest buyer then they shouldn't have a problem with it!
