Selling my PSP on ebay, Suspicious Buyer Questions

And I've got a couple people asking about shipping to the Ukraine and Bolivia. This sent up a couple red flags for me.

I've checked out both names, and the guy from the Ukraine has 16 positive ratings (100%), but only joined ebay at the end of August. The guy from Bolivia has 106 positive ratings (100%), but only joined back in mid-May.

Am I just being super paranoid?

    There is always the risk of scammers, specially from people purchasing at ebay. In any case, if you decide to sell your psp to one of these buyers, specially the guy from Bolivia, make sure you use Fedex or DHL so that you can track the package.

    The price will be so high they will decline to make the purchase.

    What version is it?
    Or, the question I'm actually asking
    Is it hackable?

    It's a Japanese import 1000 running software version 3.90. I never really delved into modding or hacking, so I don't have any idea how good that bodes for hacking it. And I have the reserve set at $50.

    And yeah, I was gonna ship via UPS, but I'll check FedEx and DHL to see what their pricing for those locations would be.

    Edit: Shit, $120 to Bolivia and $185 to Ukraine. Yeah, I don't expect they'll want to buy at that price.
