    I was offered an item that is hard to find from someone from the UK. He says he has what I need and is not asking that much for it ($180). He wants me to pay thru Western Union instead of paypal. Sounds fishy to me. What do you think???

    Western Union is for friends / family only. EVERYONE ELSE that want's Western Union funds is a con artist. period.

    I get those all the time. They get it from the parts wanted post saying they have what you are looking for cheap.

    Delete them. Buy from people that you know have a good reputation.
