    Even on the limited information you have given I would strongly...very strongly, suggest you avoid that seller like the plague.

    I assume you are new to ebay and for your own safety can I please urge you to familiarise yourself with the ebay tuturials about staying safe, not least of which to understand the importance of feedback and the fact that you get no protection at all if you use a bamk transfer. You could also do worse than hang about this forum for a while as we cover lots of topics and it will help you avoid making an expensive mistake.

    Uggs are gonna be a fair amount and I dont think its worth the risk.

    Bank transfer on a seller with 1 feedback... a listing has already been removed... not even with someone else's bargepole.
    My TV is broken! :cry:
    Edit: refunded £515 for TV 1.5 years out of warranty - thank you Sale of Goods Act! :j
