He then Wanted 40 of each.
I then tried to call Phone number not connected. address is a car park I emailed pricing and told him I called but not connected and this is his reply: i am sorry to tell you that i am out of town that is why can you please advice me with the quote and i will call you shortly

Same experience here. Wanted price quote but said he would pick up the items. Very fishy sounding.

the phone number 707 225 0603 is not a scam i deal with him and have a good business with him.

Filled web form  at our wholesale company web site asking for price of 160 pieces of a magazine to be paid by credit card and picked up. We don't do that type of order without an account so it's not happening, but I thank those who have posted here. He was using this information with us:

Same as all the other posts above.  He came to website and wanted to purchase equipment under the same scam.  Thanks to everyone who posted!!

I received same email:   kindly go ahead and give me the grand total cost without shipping because it will be
picking up also please advice the lead time and the avail-abilities of the unit, if i may ask what type of credit card do you accept for payment. awaiting to heard back from you,

All these types of solicitations are scams. My site plainly lists prices, yet they ask what is the price. My site clearly says what forms of payment we accept, and yet they ask. A sadly large number of people don't kno how to write a oherent e-mail, but beware these types with broken English, syntax, etc. Going to Japan? Seriously? Why not buy from the factories there at 1/4th the US price. Run away....fast.

Same EXACT email as above - when I called his number - it said the Magic Jack customer was unavailable - which explains the connection issue that everyone has mentioned.

There's another post about this guy but he is now using a different phone #. Beware.

He has a very heavy accent and it sounds like one of those internet VOIP phones, sounds very far away. He then emailed me and wanted us to ship the goods to Japan but initially said he would pick up. Very shady.
