The guy had an auction , now its not there. he emailed me back after i asked him about it.

Hello!

The item is brand new , never used , in original box, the final price includes is 1000 USD + shipping taxes and includes an US warranty of 2 years .

STEP1.Before, i need your details ( full name and full address )so i can ship the package to you  .

STEP2.I will ship the package to you via DHL

STEP3.You will receive the package in 3-5 days .

STEP4.I will send you the tracking number .

STEP5.You will receive the confirmation from DHL with the details of the deposit and with the details of the package .

STEP6. After you will receive the tracking number and the confirmation from DHL,you must make the transfer at Western Union.

Thank you!

 
never do any transaction involving a wire transfer, they are always scams.

seriously, don't do it.
 
Not much, a 1000 but not much(not sarcastic)

I can't see how its a scam if i get it first and if i don't like it i can send it back?
 
did u not read what he said above? ANYTHING THAT IS A WIRE TRANSFER IS A SCAM. ITS JUST LIKE SENDING CASH.
 
Yeah i understand that. But if i have my stuff then what could wrong.

I know i may seem like a fucking idiot. But enlighten me.
 
well, first off, if you are buying electronics, it is probably a grey-market "hong kong" version, quite possibly not new (anyone can plastic wrap a box), or various other things.

Basically, only people who are scammers use wire transfers, because the buyer (you) has no insurance/compensation or anything if stuff goes wrong on a wire transfer.
 
well either its chill you have the stuff befor you have to pay... or ...he doesnt send you anything then has your name and adress and threatens you if you dont pay up.
 
I see I see.

Would writing up a contract, and having him sign it?

Like mailing one and all that jazz?

and ask him every question he could ever think of?
 
Sooooo should I just start over with a new Email and Give him all fake details and send it to abandon house and swoop his cameras?

Whats the worst that could happen?
 
are you stupid??

Just dont get involved in it, its pretty simple!

I'm guessing you found an ebay deal that is "too good to be true", thats because IT IS.
 
it's not smart to buy cheese burgers over the internet. are you too fatand lazy to walk next door to mcDonalds to pick up a supersized shit shake?

bhill, you never call anymore! welcome back to NS man

shows how gay you are
 
I don't know why man, but my brother dosn't like you, so he logs onto my name and sends hate everywhere to try and get me banned. so to anyone that reads this, if I send a rediculus amount of hate your way, it wasn't me. unless you are Heath.
 
how bout you go against the advice of multiple people who know whats going on, and just go through with your wire transfer?

lets just see what happens.
 
I already did for my school's talent show. hahaha jk. Actually my friend Jimmy who did do a stand-up act for our talent show. He was actually pretty good, but everyone thought he probably stole some of the lines from Carlin routines and stuff. He didn't win, but he did pretty well. And I don't know why I just explained all of us this, but since I typed it out I will still post it. lol. Sorry.
 
I was checking around and i see his email somewhere else.

With another ebay account. This time he accepts paypal and its through ebay.

Soo therefore iam covered.

i dunno knowing me i won't buy it.

Though i could make some bank and donate a camera to NS.
 
why do you want 5 XL2's???

And think about this, who in their right mind would sell 5 XL2's for only 1 grand????? Someone who stole them... so why wouldn't they just steal from you?

its shady... but go ahead, i don't care if you get 1000 jacked
 
Isn't he asking you to pay once you recieve the item number and confirmation that your item ahs been shippped from DHl. That doesn't mean your going to have an item, he could put anything into that box and ship it to you. Pay him in a way that your money is covered like paypal.
 
ITS A SCAM! Even if he sends you a confimation number you have no idea what he actually shipped. if it sounds to good to be true, it probably is.
