[FONT=Geneva, Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]I have a deal pending with a guy who is in the UK and wants to use TNT Express for a third party delivery/payment system. The deal on camera and lenses is a really, really good deal for me and I just feel like it's too good to be true.

Anyone use TNT that can speak of it's reputation??

thanks

    When I was living in the UK I had used TNT as a delivery service. Seemed like a reasonable comapny at the time. I have never used them for a payment option tho, so cannot speak to that side of things

    Be very wary of the post for the camera equipment mentioned in the post. The seller claims to be in Manchester, England and wants you to send money to an escrow and delivery company called TNT.

    If it sounds too good to be true it very well might be!
