    note, the seller says "For the lucky winner who breaks the reserve" Who knows how high it is, could very well be 3k - 4k.

    Which makes it not a good deal.

    Check out the Payment section:

    "Personal Check/Money Order/Cashier's Check".

    I emailed "mine9" to see if he'd be willing to accept a shoebox stuffed with unmarked bills. Waiting for his response. :o

    ....Yes, this deal has an "aroma" about it.

    Hell, I'll bid on it then.

    Paypal would back me to $1000... $1100 is liveable.

    EDIT: Didn't "break" the reserve. Oh well. :)

    Lucky you....he's not covered by paypal's "Buyer Protection" program....sellers need some minimum requirements in order to make that program.

    You're right... he'd need one more positive feedback to be covered. Regardless, he doesn't accept Paypal.

    It doesn't really matter... I didn't meet the reserve, and I certainly won't be entertaining "second chance offers" for the sub alone.

    Eh. I just got a "second chance offer" scam (did NOT come through ebay). I might yank his chain a little, see what he says about local pick up :)
