Apparently the seller is a soldier and can get the cars shipped here from the UK in 4 days? Payment is to be made by using something called 'Square trade'.

Square Trade here are their terms:
>1) If you will not receive the car not as advertised,Square Trade will refund you the whole amount which you paid me(100 %).In case that you will not receive the car,they will refund you the money back from my account.
>
>2) You can send the money to my name and address but you will not provide me the details of the payment.You will provide the details to Square Trade.They will verify the payment and if is ok,and the money are availble under my name they will notify me to procede with the shipping.After you receive and see that the car is the one you want,you just notify Square Trade to forward me the payment details in order for me to pick up my money.

So obviously the deal is that some sucker deposits the money then he just disappears without a trace.
