its quite obvious the seller is out to scam.
There is absolutely no reason to avoid escrow. Especially, in this situation of both sides not feeling comfortable.
The fact that he just repeats the fact hes been here for 5 years and have been selling and trading is irrelevant.
Escrow is like $100 or something. shipping like $50 tops. split the costs 50/50 and both caulk up the loss as personal gain. end of story.
There is nothing else to add, or discuss. if the buyer will not agree to such things its obvious what he is and is trying to do. He should be IP Banned from the site. so as to not have this happen anymore.
This is AGAIN not your concern, and based on your riduculous comments i will put you on the list of people not to sell to, as it is not worth the TROUBLE.
As far as your comment about me scamming, i am no scammer, the buyer of the SW is Unreasonable...
END OF STORY..
