On eBay you protected with shipment and you overpay Only 5% on exchange rate. But if he ask PayPal to family friends you will pay over 10%. Bank transfer is the best. But you risk on shipment. depend on the sum you pay, maximum I risked 1200usd. Twice I was saved from Froadulent seller on eBay on sum around 5000usd
And if you pay as a friend you cannot claim a refund on PayPal Image

bmsm,

Where are they located? Maybe one of us is close and might be able to help out.
If they are near me, I'd do it in the blink of an eye. :)
