is it just me or does the wording of that e-mail remind you of a nigerian 419 scam ?

either way, this is dodgy. any company that doesn't have a full address, don't take credit cards, is negotiable with VERY cheap prices and then offers free shipping ?

a similar discussion to this one seems to be taking place here :

http://forums.ebay.it/thread.[....]077&tstart=0&mod=1121424006742

(although they seem to have been sidetracked by a discussion on romanians !)

Even if they use Escrow, they could have set up a fake escrow service to take your money. if they are so cheap, why doesn't everyone else get the same prices?
I'd avoid.

Also, why does the email addy not tally with the website?

Escows site says that it protects online buyers from fraud, however so does paypal, but I still got conned once and never got a refund... (only £10 though).

That e-mail is quite funny though, very professional
"if you don't accept escrow,
please don't reply so we can save the time"


They will take 50/100 orders of the minimum $500 and run... Thats why they need to save time.
Oh my god! a wooden goat!.

They must be using the address in or near the London famous Tower 42 building.


I work in Liverpool street so I might check it out later myself.
Think they would like to know if someone is using their address.
