Default desperate..need ebay help

I need 2 items off ebay but the seller only ships us and has no paypal (MO only), I really need these 2 parts. It wouldn't have been a problem as I have a US shipping address but he has bidding restrictions so I can't bid at all, even if I wanted to. Who can help me? Preferrably someone willing to do the MO, I have paypal, will pay + paypal fees + expenses no problemo... I need these parts for my crower injector, no way to get them here.

thanks

Marck

Be careful. There are a lot of scams on EBAY. I have found that when people set restrictions, like NO PAYAPL, it is a sign of a possible scam. As soon as you send out that money order you are taking a chance.

Good Luck, hope you don't get screwed.

I send an PM to 82MDVette

I have never had problems sending MO's , abuddy of mine in Houston normally takes care of issues like this but he's on the road.

If someone screws you over and you paid with a MO, contact the feds, mail fraud equals jail time.

i was following the auction for the jet selector.

what's was the deal with the bid by anthony sinclair? I thought it might be Yellow bidding. anthony was a brand new ebay name with no transactions.

I tried to go back and look at it-what happened? I've noticed alot of guys are changing their names on a regular basis and going private.Some of these guys want to sorta sneak up at the last second.I have ask some of the people that won my stuff if they were using the "last second software"and they laughed and said yes-it makes it tough to bid against them and they get it for a lower price.
