Phone on Buy and sell

    Hey all,

    I saw an ad on buyandsell.ie for a phone for €300. The phone usually goes for around 500 on ebay.

    I emailed the guy and I got a reply back saying:

    hi. yes the phone is still available and will be shipped from Genova/Italy and will come to you in 2 days. the shipping taxes are only 50 EUR and will use a safe way to finish the deal so both can be sure that the transaction is real and safe.
    if you agree our conditions please e-mail back.
    also we have a big offer this week (until 28th january) : if you buy 2 nokia 8800 will get a third one for free.
    thank you for your interesting
    have a nice day

    Do you think this sounds dodgy or would I be safe enough?

    What kind of payment option should I go for? I was going to ask him for a cash on delivery?

    Just send me the cash and I'll forward it to him for you.
    You can mind my bag of magic beans as security until the phone arrives.

    3x 8800 for the price of 2? Do you have to ask if it's a scam? :D
