Hi

First I received a private message from "Henry498" saying

"Monic has a Spyro PS1 press kit he wants to part with.Dont know his username on here but you can reach him via romes231@outlook.com"

Then I contacted that person who sent me a few pictures of Spyro PS1 press kit. So I trusted that Romes

He/she sent a first payment request to pay for the press kit. I paid
Then he/she contacted me a few days later to pay for shipping costs. But the payment request came from a different PayPal account than the first one. The guy was nice and said that I should trust him that he used his son's account the 2nd time
I replied that I was finding this weird and he insisted that he was at the post office ready to send the package and needed money right now
I said no and I asked for refund and no news then...

Hi know I was a bit naive but frankly it looked OK.
I am glad i lost only 55 euros. It could have been worse
For those who wonder how I could trust this price for Spyro PS1 press kit, the guy showed pictures of an unregular press kit that comes with documents and photo slide shows that typical of those old PS1 press kits
