hi there, I had the same bad experience with a buyer( I don't know where he is exactly located, but as per his phone # he should be in Pennsylvania state ) he asked me to ship the item to his lovely girl friend in Nigeria. he insisted to pay me by Paypal. OK no problem, he told me that my account account will be immediately credited after verifying the tracking # of the shipping. I received an e-mail "from Paypal" in that way. I shipped the item, sent him the track #, but my account is not credited yet. After reading your Posts, I figured out that I've been pranked. Fortunately, I shipped the package at the post office late on Friday, I was the first one at the post office early in the morning on Monday. Thanks God the package is still there, it has not been picked up yet. so I get back my package and shipement fees. So be careful and think twice. Just for your Information and take care of this guy: Name: Davis Grey     Thank you All ... View more
