Happened to me last night guys, I noticed things were a little strange and went looking around the net, just to check it out. Found your site.
this is how it started, you need to read this section backwards for the email trail.

Hi,
Unfortunately this is the only way I can sell it at this moment, since I cant offer viewing this is the reason insist to do it genuine with eBay. A full refund/return policy is available.
Thank you
Michelle

I have never done it and its a lot of money to go wrong.
I would prefer to give you a deposit say £500 via paypal then the balance on delivery, how would that be, this covers you for any out of pocket etc should there be a problems, not that there will be

Due to my location and since view is not an option I have requested personal support and I was approved to use Buyer Protection Program. Here is how the process works:
- you give me your full name and shipping address
- I start the transaction with the eBay,
- they send further payment instructions,
- you have to pay for the item to eBay to secure the funds,
- they confirm me that they received the funds,
- I deliver the motorhome,
- you receive the motorhome,
- they send me the money.
Everything is covered by eBay. I will get paid only after you confirm that you received the motorhome in good order.
Let me know if this is acceptable. Thank you
Michelle
