I just send her an Email:
Hello Nina,
Could you please give me your user name on Ebay just to make sure you're a safe trader? I can't just send you a laptop half way accross the world without knowing how reliable you are. Please send me your contact information. Shipping to Russia will be a lot more, so I won't pay for all the shipping costs like I would for U.S. buyers if you buy it right away.
Thank You
Damir
IntegraBoy - have you heard of how many people have gotten screwed over on Ebay? I bought an engine last month and the seller never shipped it. I filed a police report and as soon as I called and told the seller, he was willing to give me my money back. I'm expecting my money back by the end of this week so I put the police report on hold. If I don't get it, the police will be dealing with him from that point on.
Some people were selling "BRAND NEW PLAYSTATION 2 ORIGINAL BOX AND RECEIPT" and the buyer only received an empty box after paying $425. I know most people are honest, but not everyone is. It could happen to anyone.
