I got this msg from him

"hey man i went to applestore here in toronto and waited for the laptop, got it and wanna stick with my my powerbook
its 2.0 ghz, 512 mb ram,100 gig hd,15 inch ,ATI Mobility Radeon X1600 256 mb

ill sell it for the 1600 shipped you would like to spend let me know"


Now this sounds like a great deal right? This computer retails for over $2400...

I sent him an msg asking for pictures and I still haven't seen any. This was two days ago. I looked at his other posts and it seem he has been involved with some shaddy things. You have been warned....

One more question, Where do you live? I live close enough to Canada to drive up, save on shipping.

Need to see pictures with a time stamp and your name on a sheet of paper next to it. Sorry but this sounds very fishy.

He contacted me about a week ago about a z70va 2ghz for $800...

I was very skeptical as well and asked for pics. He told me he worked for a computer shop which is how he got the computers for so cheap and told me he would get the pics right away. This was about a week ago on MSN and he hasn't been on since.. Dunno whether he blocked me or what.

He had a 9300 to sell me, and he said he would ship first before payment. Make that 'suggestion' to him.

Yeah, this guy pulled the same crap on me with a toshiba lappy. I backed away cuz i got a bad vibe from him.
I hope he doesnt actually get someone here. Maybe the mods can IP ban him.

Number #1 rule about buying stuff online use Paypal, but you MUST use a credit card through them. If you don't get the goods you can dispute the charges via your credit card and paypal won't get paid (CC payments are not instant). This is one reason why paypal doesn't like CC payments and charges the seller for them...If the the seller won't take a CC payment through Paypal that is a redflag NOT to do business with them.
