First you should not put someones contact or personal info on this board.

 

Secondly they have sent an invoice, if you don't want to pay it then just don't pay it.

 

Just let the seller know you have changed your mind.

DO NOT use paypal to buy a motor vehicle, there is no buyer protection.

No one can force you to pay for anything.

 

Personally no way would i even send a deposit until i had examined the vehicle.
