    Consider that if you were born yesterday,
    the 5D would be below $600 when you reach
    your current age. mwink.gif

    This is what the seller sent back..Cameta Store !!!
    Price: $600
    For this product I offer free shipping.
    This is new in sealed box and with 1 year warranty.
    Shipping method: UPS Express.
    Time delivery: 3-4 days.

    This time I'm in United Kingdom for a business trip and I'm unable to process the PayPal payments.
    For both protection I want to enrole this transaction in the eBay Exchange Package system.
    This is a 100% safe method.

    Transaction process:
    1. I'll send the package to you through eBay Exchange Package Service.
    2. eBay will inspect the package and will send you the notification with the payment details through email.
    Also you will receive and the UPS tracking number.
    With this you can verify the shipment status online.
    3. You will send the payment through MoneyGram on the eBay officer name. You can find a MoneyGram location in any bank.
    5. After you will send the money through MoneyGram you will reply with the notification received from eBay with the Reference Number and your complete name exactly how this appear on the MoneyGram receipt.
    6. eBay will approve the payment and will delivery you the package through UPS Express.
    7. After you will receive the package and you will inspect it you will inform eBay about that and they will release me the funds.

    IMPORTANT NOTICE: You will don't send any money until you will not receive the tracking number from UPS.
    Do not contact me if you aren't serious buyer or if you are interested in scamming methods as eChecks, etc.

    If you agree with the terms then send me your complete name and address for shipping and I'll ship you it today.

    Best regards!

    I've heard nothing of this method and I don't deal with ebay......


    It's just to good to be true !!!!!

    There was a guy on ebay about a year ago trying to sell Canon 600mm lenses for $900. It was the same scam, payment by money gram. He said he had nine 600mm lenses. ebay kept taking the add off and he kept putting it on until they finally got rid of him. ebay has issued countless warnings to never pay by moneygram or western union.
