Help! Help!!

Hi Guys,

I found a place sales renowned brand 50" Plasma TV for only $2,000. This company is in Europe and he only accept direct deposit with purchase less than $20,000, but he can accept escrow if the order is in a value above $20,000. While I am buying only one TV for myself, I can only use the direct money transaction system. I am afraid to be cheated. Is there anyway for me to find out if he has the genuine product or he is playing me. Should I believe in him?

If anyone can give any suggestion, that'll be high appreciated. Please send me email to bbminiwhite@yahoo.com

Thanks ahead.

I don't think it would be a good idea to buy from this company. You will have no way to get your money back if the deal turns out bad. I would suggest staying away form this "deal" and buying from a reputable dealer.

This is one of the most popular rip-off scams out there. Run away.

Where are you located? Wouldn't shipping be a little outrageous?

It looks like you're wanting to buy the same TV's sold by this place

It's probably closer to you.

CircuitCity has the Panasonic PT53TW53 53" Widescreen HDTV Monitor on clearance for $1550 - $250 rebate = $1299 w/ free shipping. You also get a $100 gift certificate.

Much better deal and from the US. Might not be plazma, but it'd HDTV.

yep, very much so. I was gonna help my friend buy one of the plasma tvs.

One was from another state and wanted half down through either paypal or western union for "security" purposes. I offered if he could to C.O.D. from start but wouldn't.

From my experience from these people, they want half or a third down which I would never do.
