A couple of things you may want to check since you are a new seller and a scam magnet although they don't usually go after low value items. Look at the offeror's feedback and see how long they have been an eBay member. If they have little or no feedback or are themselves fairly new high probability that it is a scam but that is not always a guarantee they could be legit just new. Also if you are selling internationally check to see where the offeror is located a lot of the scamming efforts are out of China, Russia and the other FSU countries.
I sell internationally quite a bit but have excluded a lot of countries because of the scamming efforts and I will cancel a sale to one of those countries that tries to skirt the process by using a freight forwarder.
You may not be aware but for auctions there is also a BIN option that you can also use but it has to be 30% higher than the starting auction price so for a $38 posting that would be $49.40 or more. If you use this option you can also check the immediate payment required with BIN. Nothing you can do will protect you 100% from being scammed on eBay but you can minimize your risk. Always operate under the #1 rule and that is to never post anything you cannot afford to take a loss on.
