I'm really sorry to hear about what happened to you. Here's where he becomes greedy. While he was scamming you on November 19, he was out looking for his next victim shortly after.

He sent me a PM on November 25, asking if I was still interested and offered to lower his price. He PM'd me because I had shown interest in the camera earlier but when he couldn't provide the shutter + flash count, I moved on. Anybody who buys a prosumer camera would very likely know or learn how to track these things. I replied to his PM saying I had already found something else.

I guess he figured he would try to sell the same item as many times to as many people...the greedy SOB!

Thanks very much for your offer. I've bought mine now. Good luck with your sale.

From my personal experience, and I know this is hard because sometimes the deal offered is very good, but it *really* is better to COD and sometimes pay a bit more than have to go through such a heart-breaking time. We all work hard for our money and I'm still angry that such people think they can get away with preying on others.
