I put an auction up for an average computer, 699 starting, 999 buy it now. I have gotten at least 15 emaisl from seperate bidders, all of them offering between 1000-1600 to send it to there "cousin, brother, aunt, etc" who just happeans to be in asia. Is this a scam that I dont know about? Please get back to me

I know, I think something is up, indeonesia, phillipeans, all these places. The people emailing me are from the states though. Gotta send it to a relative in the US though. I think they are gonna try and screw me some how, some international trade rule, something, which I odnt know about. I think im gonna send it to them, nott he fucking brothers, fuck them

I wouldn't trust it...and don't they have different wattages over there as far as power is concerned? I would sell it to the people in the states, and have them ship it over...knock a couple bucks off for them

What are the specs of the computer? I never end any auction early. Not worth the headache... Let everyone fight it out until the auction ends. I sometimes add Canada as places that the item can be sold to.

Dont agree to an overseas sale on e-bay.
If you want to be safe, demand a Postal Money Order.

sounds to me by accepting this your not the one doing anything illegal...

Seems to me like these people are "carding" merchandise...

When you "card" you dont want to get the shit sent to your house because that would be easy to get caught, you want it sent to other peoples houses and then pick it up...
