Title: What the hell?
Post by: Judas on December 30, 2007, 06:43:43 PM
[Yes I posted this at Boyah, but it's unbelievable so it goes here as well]

Okay, so one of my Mac auctions just ended. The winner is this guy from South Africa.

He immediately sends me an email requesting overnight shipping via DHL... TO SOUTH AFRICA. And says he doesn't care about the fees.

I checked on dhl.com, and it would be $2,050. Now, what the intercourse ?!

WHO IN THEIR RIGHT MIND WOULD DEMAND OVERNIGHT INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING ON AN OLD COMPUTER?

He can't scam me if I send him a PayPal invoice, which is what he's requesting, so I'm pretty sure this is legit. Crazy as intercourse , though.

Best part is, if this guy really wants to be two grand for shipping, I can save 10% but still charge him the normal rate. Instant $200 for me.   magician;
