Guys!

I just bought this baby from this guy......is this price too good to be true?!

I already bought it so I don't know yet....I mean the cheapest u can get this is for $3200

Yet $1999 plus $5 shipping sounds TOO good to be true.

He does have good feedback rating so I don't know.......

what do u guys think??

What would be the safest way to pay him??

I trust u all more than I trust would trust this ebay person

MODS: If I have posted to the wrong forum, please feel free to move it appropriately. Though I think I have posted in the right place. Other people can buy it too so I guess its a GEAR SELLING post as well!

hey, i know you.

as for the answer, id do COD, not paypal as i suggested before.

The BEST way to pay for items in this price range is an escrow service. I have had good dealings with: https://www.escrow.com/index.asp . Escrow holds the cash for both the buyer and seller until the buyer can be sure that the item is as advertised. Then the buyer authorizes the release of the funds. If you use PayPal and the seller removes the funds from his PP account before you can determine there is a problem with the item, there is nothing PP can do to retreive your money.

Good luck.

btw, I am NOT affiliated with Escrow.com in any way, I'm just a satisfied customer!

I'd be a little skeptical. I mean didn't they just start shipping the 17in PB's the other day?

You sure it's not a typo and the 12in is really beng sold?

From the description,

I am pretty sure its not a typo.

I think we will have to wait and see. Also, lets see what kind of payment terms he sets up. If they are kinda shady, then I will keep a heads up on this whole thing.

I am pretty skeptical of this whole thing because the price is just "TOO GOOD"

I dont know what to think......

I've already emailed him a couple of emails.......just waiting for a reply.

Plus, he has pretty good feedback. Hopefull this is ALL legit.

Regards,
G

I'd be VERY VERY VERY skeptical.

I'd also read this report to see if it looks familiar:

P.S. I can't read the ebay ad because the link in your post is bad.

I hope you are the lucky guy, I hope you can get it for $1999.

Would you fix the link? since the link is broken.

I think this is the correct link:

$5 shipping cost and $2 for insurance for a few thousands notebook? you better use escrow service, if not, it will be too risky.
