I try not to buy anything expensive on eBay for this reason. One day I saw a Nikon D100 camera and lenses for $1200. A great price! Buy you know what they say, "If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is."
The sellers account was in North Carolina, and that he accepted PayPal. But when the "seller" emailed me he gave me some BS story about how he ran a business in Romania selling goods seized by Romanian Customs. And he wanted a wire transfer.
So it was SEE YA!
