Anyone live in Bradenton, Florida OT, will remove if requested


I'm trying to buy a big ticket item from seller with no ebay/paypal experience. She seems a bit flaky to me, at least too flaky to trust sending a wire transfer to.

I'd pay a commission in silver coins / slabbed coins to keep this related. It's not worth an $800 flight to me.

Please PM

    Red flags and horns sounding in my head. Be careful. Is it worth it?

    I'd highly discourage an Ebay purchase when done by wire transfer.

    If the purchase is bogus, say bye-bye to your dough.

    I'm in Canada so I can't help you out...on second thought it's about 10 below today so maybe I should take a flight to Florida....still couldn't help you as I'd be golfing from sun-up to sundown.

    Wire transfer is the same as mailing cash. It cannot be recovered.

    Perhaps use an escrow service?
