BE CAREFUL. That top line Switchback or Illusion (or any of the others) with a 300-400$ 'Buy It Now' from China are probably a scammer who has been changing identities rapidly over the past few days. The sure giveaway that it is him, is that he does NOT take PayPal, ONLY Western Union, Money Gram or wire transfers to his account. If you send the money, it's gone and he'll have another identity up and selling in a few days. The other 'tipoff' clue you can get is that he has been a member for a couple of months and is a member from either France or Poland or some country other than China. eBay has been kicking him off pretty quickly but not until people bid on some of his bows. Happy Hunting. Hope this helps a fellow hunter.
