There's a subset of ODTers that basically run on far higher-trust rules, but it's a bit like the Freemasons.

You know when you've become one of the circle, and it's all cool AF, and it usually arises when you've participated in a lot of conversations unrelated to trading. As the subscribership has increased, nobody should be surprised that in general, you have to be less trusting, *despite* all the controls that the ODT admins try and put in place.
 
In general, I'd recommend not making ANY payment until you meet.

You have no way to know - for sure - whether the item you're buying is even as-described. Or even exists.
Excellent Policy. If you are going to meet anyway why not wait till you see it so you are not locked in. Once you give it up getting it back is 50 times harder.
 
DanKATL DanKATL As this thread is about educating us all, not just the OP, if this “seller” is an alleged scammer trying to disguise himself as someone else, how did he get 25 positive feedbacks? Two/three/ten other alleged participants in a conspiracy to drive up their numbers? Certainly, if the 25 fb represented bogus interactions with legitimate members here, at least one of those traders would have smelled a rat and raised a stink. If they were all legitimate fb for legitimate deals made with legitimate members, why try to scam the OP here? I’m in no way trying to defend the alleged scammer just curious how he gamed the fb system or hacked in to set himself up with a plausible number of positive interactions before springing his clever trap that ended when the OP immediately blew it up in this thread.

Where did those 25 fb come from? Am I overthinking this?

Because he's talking to a scammer and not the ODT member. One of the many reason public callouts are not permitted here. Someone (not the other ODT member) contacted him outside of ODT.
