I guess if he has the feedback, then fuck it, you only live once right? Unless your some kind of voodoo witch doctor...or your heart stops then doctors revive you...

hmmm, easy fix, tell him you live next to him and youll pick it up, if hes legit hell agree. just call his bluff, if hes not legit hell say soemthing like i just sold it.

Now thats smart thinking! Seriously try it... honestly if he said o I sold it then he's obviously trying to scam you...

o... well you could always say a friend of mine can go over to your place to pick up the item that way you don't have to pay for shipping either or something like that. Honestly, that really sounds fishy..

Paypal: 90% of the time they basically say their hands are tied. You are best off doing a charge back after paying from a CC if he doesn't deliver on his side of the deal. But Fit's credit card is apparently maxed. :(

If you do buy it use a CREDIT CARD through PayPal. Otherwise you're screwed. I learned that the hard way when I was scammed out of $150.

lol, epic post. haha.

If he has good feedback, its a worthwhile risk. I don't think the kid would risk it as one negative comment and no-one will buy from him.

Best off waiting for Screenshots etc. first.

Screenshots and pictures dont matter...there was that guy on this forum that scammed a bunch of people, who may I remind you guys I told you he was a scammer and no one listened to me. He had pictures and everything...but it doesn't always matter. I have pretty good judgment when it comes to this stuff now, especially since I was scammed about 2 years ago.

i flipped a quarter and it rolled under the stove....



i been banned from OCN 31 times now man. im running out of names...

lol your kidding about that right? haha why were u banned at all? your a strait up, humorous dude always looking for a deal or project, i can't see you getting banned from any site :laugh:.

and i don't have much experience with this whole trade, but i agree it does sound very fishy to me, and though he gave you a name could he not have just given you the name of someone that does have good feedback and it not be his account(s)? i would definitely wait for pictures. What gets me though is he's willing to pay for shipping....yet can't afford batteries??? just sounds like bs to me man

I would walk. Way too good to be true. Last time I saw a deal like that, it was in Maudio's thread.

You have to watch out though, even with good feedback it could be a scam. I bought an Eagles jersey of eBay 2 years ago, it was supposed to be the proper sewn ones that cost like $300, I won the bid for like $120 and it wasn't legit, despite the fact the seller was a member for a long time, had TONS of postive feedback and wasn't in China or some other dodgy location. I didn't get my money back and had to stick to my replica jersey :(

Same happened when my 1GB PSP Memory Stick was stolen, bought a 2GB Sony Memorystick off a guy and it was fake, couldn't transfer files over 1GB to it.

thats what i decided.

thanks everyone.

It sounded pretty fishy, so smart decision. Now go make another one and use the $385 you just saved to help pay off your maxed-out credit card :rolleyes:
