I saw one of those same auctions and they want to be paid through Western Union. Even if they actually do send the buyer what they paid for, they are trying to cheat ebay out of their fees by circumventing their process. You have to watch Amazon.com for this type of thing too. They want to bypass the Amazon checkout and have you send the payment Western Union. I've bought and sold on eBay with no problems, but I'd rather use Easy Pay on Cabelas, pay it off over six months with no interest, get the full warranty and return guarantee.
