TAKE THE MONEY AND RUN! Don't let your love for the audio piece cloud smart business choices. It could be worse ex: no money/no product. How can you trust him at this point? Chances are if he is not straight up with his business dealings, he was not straight up with the listed condition rating either. It could arrive in lousy condition. Another good deal will come up. I have dealt with many sales via the internet (I am a dealer) and the unfortunate reality is you will eventually end up crossing paths with a flake. You just happen to cross that path early in your trip. For the most part... we have great group on AudiogoN.com. It is by far the best A/V internet trading site worldwide. IMHO, kindly tell him that you will happily accept your payment returned in official form (bank check). It is not worth the gamble. This hobbie has some great people... he is not one of them.
