I had a member with 0 posts send me a email contact for a Brad Lowery in North Carolina, selling some 993 parts. I was looking for a turbo s Aerokit
So we have the usual conversations and I saw there was a post on rennlist with the exact same pictures on rennlist from 2013 that never got sold and he said he stored them away so I assumed it was the same person (that post said he was located in Florida)
We agreed on a shipped price from the US and I wired him the money (he said didn't have paypal). A few days later he said money arrived, but there is now additional export taxes and shipping costs of $1000 usd.. then I try to get some confirmation about the bills for these extra costs or is it possible to refund and he says he has already spent a part of the money to start arranging the shipping (but refuses to give me any proof of so).
This all starts to get a bit fishy to me. But then I'm wondering if he's trying to scam me why's he still asking for me?
Has anyone dealt with this person or come across something like this when purchasing from US? I've heard of import taxes but never export taxes
Appreciate any help here if anyone has anything. PM me if anyone needs contacts etc just to confirm. Really appreciate it..
