I found this on ebay and stck a small bid on, but the more i think about it the more it look a bit dodgy, being in europe and having no feedback.

What do you all reckon?

i would be very cautious of postage costs. Get them to email you an exact amount. I have a mate at work who bought a 'bargain' from Japan on ebay, by the time he haid paid P+P it was dearer than buying it from over here. They can theoretically say that it will be £200 for P+P and if you refuse to pay it because it is too dear they could leave you with negative feedback.

As long as you confirm costs first, that side of it should be OK. If anything else dodgy happens (ie. they never send it to you) you are protected to an extent by the ebay rules.

I never buy anything from overseas unless I pay by paypal, with this comes a degree of protection and a chance of getting your money back. But as has been said above.. check the overall postage costs... cause it ait going to be cheap.
