Since I own my own company I can take a vacation anytime I need to, and my 2005 Dodge crew cab truck can easily make it to Kansas........... And its big enough to carry some friends too.

Aneoth wrote:Then I would tell him that for this much money I MUST have a real address for the higher safety margin of his actually getting the funds and for someone to sign for the delivery (I would do the signature receipt) otherwise I will take the bad feedback and move on.
Badmike wrote:Guys, he takes paypal. You are completely covered. Just use paypal charged onto your credit card and not to your balance, if the guy is scamming you, you bypass paypal and simply cancel the transaction on your card. No worries.Mike B.

Badmike wrote:As Killjoy is fond of saying, "Let the credit card company sort it out". I'd bypass paypal entirely, just go straight to the credit card company and cancel the transaction. Just make sure you pay off the card and not a balance you have in your paypal account. Paypal may send you a nasty note but there is absolutely nothing they can do about it.Mike B.
