SCAM ALERT!
Just be careful of a scam that was attempted on me, Not with my 
Delorean, keeping that.  The buyer sent me American Express travelers 
checks for the purchase price and shipping, The amount he sent was more 
than enough to cover both charges but he stated since he was unsure of 
the exact amount of shipping he would send more and that I could just 
refund any overage amount to him in a money order.  I called American 
Express with the check numbers, because the whole thing seemed fishy to 
me and was told the Travelers checks I received were invalid and 
reported stolen about 2 years ago. An AMEX fraud consultant told me 
that the SCAM buyer is not even interested in what they purchased, but 
only after the 2-3K that you will be refunding them- So be careful, and 
good luck
