I need to buy a replacement stereo for my car and this looks a snatch at £57. He has 5 positive feedback that looks legit but the item location is in Mansfield but in the right corner it says hes from poland. Is there nayhting dodgy about this?

    Well, his feedback is from purchases only so that's no help.
    I would be a little concerned that his location is given as poland - if nothing else why would he then give Mansfield as the item location.

    If I were you I'd ask for a local pick up (assuming you are close) as a genuine seller should not really have a reason to refuse local pick-up (although some do).
    It's BOUGHT (to Buy), not BROUGHT (to bring) AND you cannot be frauded, only DEfrauded.

    Please do not buy animals from a pet store. Visit your local sanctuary or centre and give a good home to an unloved or abandoned animal.

    i asked if he had the security code and just got a rather rude 'yes' reply.

    Ive now asked if i can pick up locally. waiting on reply. I dont want to pick it up as i live miles away but ill ask him to insure it!

    Given that about 500,000 poles have come to england in the last couple of years, it a good chance that he will be in england.
