sell in the US. http://www.hgpro-tools.com/index.php?productID=45 This is his reply to me when I asked for the price for 5 cabinet saws delivered to my location in the US. I dont know, but it seems a little TO GOOD TO BE TRUE to me. Oh Ya, he wants the money up-front and cant give me the names of any US customers due to client confidentiality. Scott For 5 DELTA 36-831A the shipping cost is $110.oo The price for 5 DELTA 36-831A is $2145.oo As payment we accept wire transfer via Western Union or bak to bak transfer for orders over $3000.oo Here are some of our clients adresses: Please confirm if this is your order Delta 36-831A x 5 ......$2145.oo shipping cost ............. $110.oo ................................................

There is no way any seller would give you their customers email addresses and they would not all be web mail addresses either. There is no way anyone in "Spain" would be selling unisaws at that price to US customers through a website designed and targeted at US customers. DO NOT DO IT! I have read about Spain, it is a country LOADED with criminal activity, such as, a LOT of prostitution slavery that is illegal, the law system and police work is extremely lax there. Also notice he did NOT state that he accepts credit cards? ONLY wire bank transfers? That is cash of the barrel for him, and he disappears my friend. Alex |

I've spent a lot of time in southern Spain and the Malaga address of the
firm in question is in the Costa Del Sol. This area was a common hangout of European criminals who went there because of lax law enforcement and sunshine. Moreover, why would a Spanish company offer such favorable prices on an American product? Good luck, TEF "AAvK" wrote in message news:iE6rd.160718$bk1.122926@fed1read05...

Are you kidding, he is high priced? I can sell them to you for $385 delivered right to your home. I only accept cash though, so please send it to me in a plain envelope. I await your reply and the cash in the mail. |

Alex This sounds similar to the Nigerian scams ( see www.ebolamonkeyman.com amongst others.) Another to be aware of that is hitting our classic bicycle sellers on eBay, is when they offer (off of eBay) for a large dollar item. They send you a money order for much more than what was agreed to and ask you to send back the overage ( a grand or two.) Problem is, the original money order was no good. So now they have your product plus a couple grand. Not sure how well it works these days since the new law went into effect allowing banks to instantly transfer money as opposed to a check hold. Bottom line, if someone comes to you with something that seems to be to good to be true, it usually is! |

Although clearly a rip-off, the quality of English and chosen target audience does strongly suggest someone from the US, using foreign servers and services. Nifty little scam. If only I was so clever. Not many woodworker types are going to part w/ 1500 minimum cash very easily, though... Why not give the guy a call: Schein, Will 2860 Horton Road (couple houses off?) Germanton, NC 27019 336-767-1300 Might want to hit *67 first to block caller ID. Let us all know how the conversation goes.... - Nate |

It belongs to Yahoo, and as best as I can figure from a traceroute, the web server itself is in California. To add even more humor, I took a chance and Googled their supposed address. I located a Flemenco Dance Studio in Malaga, Spain. Escuela Flamenca, c/ Flores García 2o Bloque 3-D, E-29 Malaga, 952 / 31 18 81 For reference, Pro Home & Garden Tools' address and phone number from their web site is Flores García 2o Bloque 3-D, E-29 Malaga,, 29006 , 952 / 31 18 81 So, either this is a combo Flamenco dance studio/tool supply or they just picked an address out of a hat. todd |
