I agree and disagree ! Wherever there is a financial transaction involved you should always "err on the side of caution".
However, even though the situation may look a little suspicious, always remember; - - - you were a first time buyer/seller at some time in the past.
How would you feel to know that people were "blowing you off" because
you had no history with AUDIOGON.
I think the appropriate thing to do would be to invest a little effort and establish a line of communication; ask for some personal background and do a little investigation of your own, before you draw any conclusions. And of course, make certain it's not an "off shore" scam of some sort.
I have done these things myself years ago, and frankly, it paid off. And, - - - - - yes, I actually had to blow off a few. Anyone credible should be forthcoming. Frankly, I don't like PAY PAL much but it seems that AUDIOGON is pretty well locked in with them. It can work in your favor, but always be cautious.
