If he would of shipped first this would of been soldI didn't have any problems like you are when I was new here.
He's accepting paypal and has pics with name/date, etc.....I don't know what everyones problem is.
I'd do it if I had money, but I've only got that VR404 and some cash.
But like everyone said, maybe ship first to someone with a ton of refs. That, or use one of the people with like 20,000 posts as a middle man that you ship to in order to make sure you get your money before the amp gets to the buyer.
