As Curt says stay away from this. I conversed with him and there are to many things that could go wrong and you would be out of the money sent. When dealing with foreign countries the rules are different and difficult to regain your cash. He was going to have me put it in an escrow account from someone he knew. Tom B

Beware of fake escrow accounts, too. There are a lot of them out there. It's easy to put up a fake website for a purported escrow company.

If Professor Stone won't accept a payment via Paypal, I doubt he would agree to send the machine (what machine?) without payment. This has got to be a scam! Especially with those ripped pics and ripped description. This is a crude con man all the way!

Can you ask to inspect the Opera in Poland? I know I certainly would have no problem doing so.
