Australian buyers/sellers (OFX Wire/Funds transfer?)

Selling a watch to someone from Australia and he is using a service called OFX to transfer funds to my bank account at Citibank. He sent me screenshots of the transfer confirmation. Seems it might take 1-2 days.

Wanted to see if anyone has used OFX to pay or receive funds before and whether it is i) Safe, ii) Irreversible without me consent.

Thoughts?

Hi

I'm.in Sydney.

I haven't use this service before but they seem legit with actual physical address in central CBD Sydney.

As always, regardless which bank or service itnis, just wait for the fund to come before sending.

OFX is completely legit, I often use it to transfer funds from Australia to the US. In my experience it generally takes 48-72 hours for the recipient to receive funds in their account. If there are delays, it might be because they are using BPay which means OFX won't receive their funds for a day or two and won't start the transfer process to the recipient until this has taken place. Any questions, PM ME.
