Another one...just today.

Early this morning I received an email from a potential buyer in CA wanting to buy the Milguass.

An hour later he called...his condition was for me to overnight the watch immediately as soon as his wire transfer appeared in my account. The watch was needed for his Friday Las Vegas watch show.

With past experience in bank EFT, knowing EFT funds would not be avail until next business day though transaction posted as "pending" on same day. Told the buyer but he insisted this was incorrect and should go on with the deal. I even offered have watch shipped to a Las Vegas address of his choice.

but deal was off...

Later I had my source ran a trace on his name and business address, all returned negative.

Watch out for this type of transaction...EFT could easily be retracted once buyer know the merchandise has been shipped.

Bottom line...Don't ship anything until money is in your possession.

TIA
