hey everyone, I know you can send invoices etc, but ive never seen someone ask for payments in 7 installations of £10.

See below, ive removed the email and name for reasons which I am sure you understand.

 

He never asked for my UKARA, although there is a picture of the gun with his name and date

It usually only happens to unverified paypal accounts or those with multiple disputes active against them - which always flags to me as something dodgy going on

I've never had anyone ask me to do this, and I've certainly never had to ask it of someone. 

Echoing the above, I'd avoid this, something is surely wrong.

 

In the event of a claim, you'd presumably have to open 7 disputes?! No chance.

Pay a bit more and shop elsewhere.

 

I wouldn't go ahead.

i had it when i sold on ebay, the price was £220, i didn't receive the money until the person had recieved the item, not an issue for me as i was genuine.  Which could mean he wants the money without ever dispatching item or could be genuine, tbh it's not worth the risk.
