Yeah, it's getting a bit hard to swallow that you were joking around, given the way things unfolded. :P Also.. doth protest too much, too.

Guys (and moderators) , isn't allowing the site to be used to sell things dangerous? We could end up swamped with, shall I say, suspicious threads. I would hate for someone to end up out of pocket.

Any thoughts? Personally I'm getting buried with my n900, anyone want to buy it? Tough, its mine

Y'all can't see a true opportunity if it hits you right smack dab in your face! an N900 for GBP 10?!?!? I'll buy a container of those with the money I've made with the help of a nigerian prince...

Seriously though, I think he wants to deal with someone outside of UK to distance himself further from the target. That way he could very well send you a brick (which the N900 is close in size ) and get a mail proof to give to paypal. Plus it'd be harder for you to pursue him due to distance and costs involved, etc.

Right. Who knows how many of you blokes could be football hooligans from Manchester. NOBODY wants to f*** with them. Least of all a scammer.

It's still easy to run a scam using PayPal.
