400D Bargain?

Not sure where this should be posted, but I'll try here first. Has anyone had any experience of dealing with canon_uk1 on ebay? I've been given a second chance offer on as 400D/xti, but I'm still a bit wary. Is £250 too good to be true? Cheers

Way too good, even used. Somethings not quite right. Be very wary.

Thats the opening bid not the buy it now price ...

Hi Gordon, it actually went to £405, and apparrently the winner backed out...

Please answer me at peter01rules@yahoo.com if you are interested in buying it , waiting for your kind answer.

this is a different item to the one ypu quoted

Sounds strange that he`s offering it to you for £250 - i would email the seller to confirm that its him sending you the message - which i doubt ...
