wattsy Posted October 11, 2012 Share #2 Â Posted October 11, 2012 Looks like a way of being conned out of $6000. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rbaron Posted October 11, 2012 Share #3 Â Posted October 11, 2012 Putting the return shipping address into google maps street view shows a house in a residential neighborhood. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
peterbengtson Posted October 11, 2012 Share #4 Â Posted October 11, 2012 "Products > Leica Compacts Cameras" Â Considering the spelling and grammatical mistakes I would suspect a scammer. Also look at the "Leica Wide Angle Lenses" category and you will find only 4 lenses, 2 M and 2S lenses. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â I should have put the :: sarcasm :: tag on my post. Â Selling an item for about $3,000 under the current list-price was my first clue. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pico Posted October 11, 2012 Share #9 Â Posted October 11, 2012 (edited) That domain has been registered for only a month by a 30 year-old woman. She has family in the neighborhood.

Jerren Posted October 11, 2012 Share #10 Â Posted October 11, 2012 Although this is a sarcastic post, always go to Resellerratings.com before buying from a non bh/adorama/keh/etc type of shop. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't care enough to dig into police reports. Â I already went down that path. I know enough to stay away. She was quite responsive to email though. I did the 'spoon' test. We'll see if that works. Â "Send me a picture of the item, with a spoon. I'll pay immediately and add 10%." Â Gets rid of the scammers pretty quick." 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
