    Exclamation I Need As MUch Help As Possible!

    Well i am trying to get this jordan auto off of ebay, and i sent him an offer. Then he sends me a message saying the he will sell me the card for 50$ less without doing the transaction on ebay and he wants to send me an invoice to my email address and says it will save us some money, he also has 100% feedback.. So what would you do do the transaction over ebay for 50$ more or not over ebay and pay 50$ less??

    As much help is appreciated!

    Always protect yourself, Do it through Ebay/Paypal, Its not worth losing $100's of dollars to save $50.

    Its the more logical way, at least that gives you some kind of protection from fraud, If he wants to save you $50 have it put it in a BIN and link you, there's no need to go offsite, but ultimately its your decision good luck........!

    tell him to send the card first

    He'll never do that especially with a Jordan Auto!

    If the seller sends an invoice through paypal, I believe you still can file a claim if anything messes up. I did that before to buy stuff outside of ebay with paypal invoice. It saves the seller ebay fee (and your money as well). Also, you can check to see if the seller has a history of selling high-end card. At least you know it is not a scam.

    Just DON'T buy it with Paypal GIFT on anything this high-end.

    i did just that fairly recently with a high end card
    he suggested it (i had never heard of it b4) & the only demand i had was i was not going to pay with paypal gift so i would be protected, he agreed & i paid
    but man i was nervous until i received the card... but the guy came thru

    good luck in getting ur card & for a good price

    You will still have paypal protection as long as you don't send as a gift.
