I'd assume any of you sending money to him usig Paypal is safe. He wouldnt go through all that to rip people off. Get the card while you can I say!!

I received an e-mail today that the money successfully transfered from PayPal to his german bank account and that he sent out the card today.

I will keep everyone posted on what happens.

edit: I ordered a BPPC 240/060 w/SCSI on it.

Do read the actual thread before commenting, it saves you time, and it saves us time repeating ourselves.

I think that what he does is wait for the money to get 100% transferred to his bank account and then sends the cards. He did this with me anyway, as he said that he never used PayPal before and wanted to make sure that I don't retreive the money somehow after he sent the card by mail, so he basically wanted to actually SEE the money in his bank account before sending anything out. Fishy, fishy, fishy...but we'll see.

My estimate is that he is only about now probably sending out cards to buyers, that is if he's legit.

He said pretty much the same thing to me.  The payment went through at the weekend so I'm still waiting.

It's pretty good with emails so I'll send him another if I dont recieve it tomorrow.

Well, in the general info text that they send in their email replies (it's also posted here in this thread) they say that they're a group that got verious cards from a store that closed, so possibly they had various cards of this model.
A friend of mine got an email answered this weekend too that they still had that model so...
One should be very paranoid with these things and not risk, but the price was good and some of you were buying too so I went for it. I  just hope that we are able to get our money back if anything goes wrong... but at the moment it seems to be cool.

If it makes you feel better, he has told me a few days ago, that he's sold out of the BPPC 060 240MHZ if all current buyers pays up.

@Haymiggan

Interesting... I think people buying the non SCSI version to spend less will be sorry soon. Unless you're not using the processor for other running programs, SCSI with good DMA spares the overhead of the processor, freeing it to have almost it's full processing power.
Video players are a good example. With SCSI they perform better.
