Sounds possible - the guy has 6 posts only and no feedback.

I'd give him another week. After that, leave him a message that if no response, legal actions (ex: calling police) will be taken.

i was in process of buying the x2 4200 from him, was going to go down to his location in Oshawa, he told me he'd contact me about the place and time he'd meet up with me two sundays ago, however, I never hear back from him, thus PM him to ask what's up... still got "1 unconfirmed private message receipt" for that PM.

edit: just noticed "norm43" is from Oshawa, and said the guy is from Brampton, sorry dude, I think this guy is scammer for sure.
