1. He is from China
2. His feedback base on "seller" and that seller is no longer a member. No one ever buy anthing from him yet. You will be the first
3. Could be knock off product.

However, only $290 shipped, why not?

I sent the seller an email, asking for a picture of the actual item... I'll wait until tomm to see if he/she emails me back. If not I'll report it then, no harm/no foul right?

yup. Next time, read it carefully before you bid.

I know it's probably a scam, but I've bought stuff from China on ebay before and they've turned out ok. Perfect example is the INGS replica wing, just installed it today, good fitment, not great, but only cost 140.

I've bought from eBay members in China and had no problems, but this on ehas scam written all over it. The user is no longer a registered member, all of their feedback is from people who are no longer members, not to mention they all seem really identical in member names, all who won auctions with the Buy It Now feature. Now you are saying their address is in Poland? Send me the $290, and I'll keep it just the same. At least that way, you'd know who screwed you.
