As if this isn't a rip off! Also interesting is that the guy that ripped me off on that US Xbox deal always replies with "Chris". Could be a coincidence but still interesting nontheless!

As for this guy, I wouldn't be direct depositing anything right away guys after my recent experience.

Atleast ask him to send COD.

Shit man, look they supply you with false details, and like Megaman said those really do sound false.

You really shouldn't have direct deposited when you knew it was fairly suss. If he stops replying you'll know why...

When he realised he wasn't fooling enough people to make how ever much he needed.

I'm pretty sure it's not a residential area. I know the area around it quite well. Even if it is, Darling Point is probably the most expensive suburb in Sydney. Nobody who lives in Darling Point is selling dodgy PS2s on eBay.

HAHAHA!

sucker born every minute. and i mean every.

really 20CentFun,
if this guy does end up ripping you off, then you've got no-one to blame but yourself.

you'll probably find that this Zed guy is the scammer who is doing the auction.

Trading on the Net is fairly simple if you exercise a little common sense. If you don't know the guy or he sounds suss, ask him to send COD. If they're a dodgy Joe, watch them run a mile. Otherwise, only deal with people that have references (GameTZ or Ebay predominantly). Also, if you're selling, never send first until you get the money (or do it by COD if neither of you feel comfortable).
