I wonder if anyone can provide me with some advice. I found someone willing to sell me a rear wiper motor via GoWesty classifieds. The seller contacted me via e-mail and said he has one and he can be paid via paypal. I was getting ready to put his e-mail address into the paypal system, but then I thought, "how can I be sure this'll work?" Could someone just surf around ISO items, say they have something and collect the cash without delivering the goods? I guess it's just the risk I take, but I didn't know if there's an easy way to check on whether someone is legit (or whether the paypal system can help make sure someone's legit). I don't see the e-mail on this list, and I can't find it on eBay, so I just don't know. thanks for any advice - Mark B.
