So Im selling an engine block and a crank seperately on eBay and the guy contacts me and asks for a package price. We agree on a price and I tell him PayPal me the money and I'll end auction early and send it Tuesday to Texas. The whole time he seems kind of like he is either slow or young or stupid. We agree on $850 shipped plus 3% PayPal fees. He said the $850 is Fine but the $250 PayPal fee seems Alittle high. I tell him it's $25.50 PayPal fee and he just texts LOL, sorry long day. Anyway he sends the $875 over night but he sends it as 4 seperate payments of $221. I'm new to PayPal. Is he trying to scam me or is he just an idiot.
Thanks
