I don't know if beware is too strong of a statement, but maybe don't try any transactions with this person unless it's officially on eBay. Dfaber7025 feedback of 260.
He had a Snape costume card that he had listed at $199. Cindy LMK of it a couple of days ago, but the auction had already expired. I contacted the seller and offered $165 since it was listed at $199 and the auction states that "no offer is too low". He countered with $185 and I accepted, with an additional $5 to cover shipping and insurance. He wanted the money sent as a gift, but I didn't feel comfortable with that and sent it as a payment so I would get some sort of Paypal coverage. Now he sends me an email saying he got charged $6 for the trasaction and he's also having to pay ebay fees for the listing, so he want's an additional $10 to cover it. Plus, I see he's already listed the card again on ebay. I told him to pack sand. It sucks, but I'll get one eventually.

The big question is: Did you get your money back?
