Almost the same experience as Philippe's except my last foray is now mired 
with mixed feelings. "Bought" a minty Noctilux M 50mm f1 for USD5000 from a 
guy called M Salamu (who claims to be a doctor living in Germany) last 
month. 3 weeks later I received a box of oats!  Now seeking a resolution 
from PayPal. After over 3 years of Internet dealings through which I 
purchased several camera systems and a fair bit of experience with all sorts 
of sellers, getting caught in this scam reminds me of the dangers of ebay 
transactions. I report almost every other week fraudulent listings with over 
90% of them being Leica items. 
Any one else with similar experience or a Noctilux to sell?
