Even if the seller had a feedback of 10,000, do you know how easy it is to hijack a sellers account. My only advice is to keep transactions under $500 and use Paypal.

I would not buy something that costly from someone w/no feedback.

even using paypal doesn't guarantee much.

i would use a legit escrow considering he isn't registered and has no history. check ebay's page on how to "protect yourself". amazing how many buyers never take the time to read it. Lotsa great tips.

You're right, paypal only covers up to $200. Whereas www.escrow.com covers $500 and over. But what ever you do, don't send M.O or checks, it's a scammers wet dream.

If it's not a scam, it's probably barebones

I bought a Sun Ultra 5 on ebay for $1200 a few years ago, but I picked that bitch up in person.
