Out of my own bad experience, I would suggest on anybody thinking of buying from unknown sellers, to use something like www.escrow.com which is the service used by ebay. It works something like this: buyer & seller agree to use escrow service, buyer pays escrow, escrow notifies that payment has been made & ok's seller to send items, buyer acknowledge receipt & notifies escrow, who then releases funds to seller. I think it is worth the $40 per $1000, just for peace of mind. If seller is serious about the deal, he/she shouldn't have any problems using an escrow service.

Guess he's broke :evil:

The saddest part of it is that he's giving all Germans a bad reputation. Who's going to buy from Germany after this? He's not representative of the Germans, but that's what's happenes :evil:

Just under a £100 per fish, dosn't seem that bad when you look at it like that :roll:

But all the fish together :o my currency convertor says they'll cost:

2,900.00 Euro = 1,983.54 United Kingdom Pounds !

Wow !
