I understand Welly's comment but take Len's caution even further. For me it is a LOT less money than that when I get cautious about sellers I don't "know" other than their FS posts. There are several other folks who appear to be here (and on APUG) for the sole purpose of buying + selling. That doesn't bother me much, except for the one chap who I think actually "bid ne up" on an item I had already established an agreement to buy. That slightly upset me, but mostly becuase the seller basically told me what happened. Oh well...
