Am I being played

From a buyers perspective....

I recently found an e-body vert windshield frame online. Guy reached out about a year ago and said he had one, then when I asked for a price, things went quiet. Fast forward, and a couple of months ago, he pops his head up and asks me if I have found one yet. The last one has sold pretty quick and he and his partner had another one they got as partial payment for a job. Pictures showed it to be clean, then he tells me to deal with his buddy in MA... hmm... ok, I'll play along.. Got a ton of pictures, lots of cooperation and the first guy seemed to have a good standing on the site.

After carefully considering potential issues, limiting my risk and pulling the trigger, I sent a chest full of money to people I didn't know from Adam. Talk about pucker factor..... a week later, I have the ws frame it's one step closer to starting my vert resto.

I guess my point is, sometimes I just gotta go with a feeling and a little due diligence or the deal is gone. Thankfully, I was able to talk to some mods on the site and get some solid opinions. Worked out for me.
