Some of the wording looks fishy. Has that scam feel when you read it. If it sounds too good to be true, it usually is. I would rather spend my money with a reputable seller.

I have already bought from Buddy. And I don't mean to ruffle any feathers. I am just curious. I got the scammer vibe to. I will continue to deal with Buddy and Matt. Awesome service! Couldn't ask for better!

I was curious about this ad because it had to be clearly a scam there just way too cheap. I called the number and a man answered poor english and a lot of back ground noise. First thing I asked was do you accept paypal. Because if they do then your protected buy the buyer protection plan where if its defective/wrong item etc. your refunded. He said no only western union haha. No way to trace it, no receipt nothing. The number 1 indicator of a scam is how they receive their money.

I also tried callin. Couldn't hear a thing. He texted me back and forth. Won't ship COD. Won't take PayPal. Doesn't have an eBay store. Doesn't have a website. Don't have a freakin clue what country he tried calling me from. He tried three numbers. One from NY. one from DC. and one with a lot of different numbers which I deleted. Looked fishy. I had no intention of buyin anything. Just trying to do some snooping so no one gets scooped. He says he has stores in New York Washington, D.C. Georgia and Florida. BUYERS BEWARE

If Western Union is the the only method of payment it's a dead giveaway for a scam
