    This week I bid on a CF-30 lid just like the one that Rob (JB007Rules) got for $113.00 . I put the bid in shortly after he listed it and since I was not going to be home when it ended I raised my bid another $20.00 ($55.00 Max) well only 1 other person bid on it. I won it for $28.77 + shipping. Well guess what... he tried to cancel it. The seller "compusource6" http://myworld.ebay.ca/compusource6/ item # 260640034294 is trying to tell me he does not ship to a PO Box to USA :confused: .So I emailed him and told him I am a Canadian with a street address .This seller is a Canadian too. I have sent him an email from my ebay account which shows my confirmed shipping address in canada. Lets see what happens now .
    I just wanted to let everyone know about this guy and watch out for him. He has sold 3 of them and the final auction price has been dropping every time .

    Blair.... I've got one for the same seller for 62buck. But you know what? It take forever to arrive. I received all the stuff that I bought from USA with same date and this one still does't show up until morethan two weeks. I have not yet leave a feedback for the transaction.

    I got a email from ebay. They said to pay him . They can not do nothing until I pay for it so I did. He now has my confirmed address so we are both covered.

    Well I went ahead and paid for it and just got a email from him
    Now we play the waiting game. Most things that come from Ontario takes about 7 days to get to me. If I get it I will leave good feedback but if I don't :D

    Just to update everyone I got the cover in the mail the other day and it was indeed new. Took about 8 days which is not bad so it turned out good. Maybe the seller did get confused. I see now he starts the bidding @ $79.99 so I got a great deal.

    Great News! Let us hope that it was honest confusion.
