The last guy really takes the price, I offered to pick up the player in berlin, and he have actually given me an adress in berlin. He is actually close of tricking me to waste a day in berlin, I bet he hope that I am just testing him and will change to bank transfer in the last minute. Damn a*****e. I have reported most of the ads now. |

an interesting fact. I reported all the ads Ive found with these 2 scammers, together with all information I got. French Leboncoin.fr which is the biggest site, active in almost all eu countries was the only site that didnt. remove the add. I got a response from them, in french ! were they explained that it wasnt enough to prove a scam. i replied with his email and a link to the forum were people been scammed by him. its 2days since that and its still on the site! |

I'd never buy a high end LD player from one of those Ad sites no matter what they promise. I have however sent wired funds to countries like Russia, France and Germany for some very rare music LDs that I simply couldn't get anywhere else in the world. Everything worked out fine but I had made many checks on the sellers beforehand to confirm they were genuine. It is a risk you sometimes have to take if you want to own something that very few others have. |

There is this http://www.ebay.de/itm/Pioneer-HLD-X-9-Laserdisc-Player-Hi-Vision-Muse-NTSC-X9-Top-End-OVP-/261291073417?hash=item3cd6295f89 HLD-X9 Player listed on ebay Germany. This Player was sold a few months ago with exactly the same pictures, seller is located in the russian federation. It looks to me like a scam...Has anyone heard of this seller? I think the player went the last time for a few thousand Euros, if I remember right. |

Not sure if it is a scam... Seller seems to be in vintage HiFi Business. Check his other items, and his feedback. But buying expensive goods from russia... gives me an odd feeling in the stomach. |

If I would buy something like that it would either be in person to pick it up and ship back to me (if its in Japan) or somebody I trust that deals with players. |
