10440 is going <almost> home! The high bidder who sniped the auction is in UK. Thanks all so much for the input and advice. After discussing it with my bank, I feel comfortable with a wire transfer. While I was emailing with the potential buyer in France I had planned to set up an account for the sole purpose of accepting the transfer and my bank is happy to do this for me. I'm all too aware of the typical scam that requests a refund to an "agent" etc etc, and no, I'm not going to fall for that one - but thanks for watching out for me guys. I especially appreciate the tips on shipping, Dave and Tom. ...............................LP and while she still has it, 10440 too To address comments privately to the moderating team, please address: moderators@xxxxxxxxxxx For more info on the list, tech articles, cars for sale see www.dmcnews.com To search the archives or view files, log in at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/dmcnews Yahoo!
