i would stay well clear, anyone who sends you emails claiming to be able to offer you a product at a lower price is dodgy
if it is such a good price why do they feel the need to email people
thats my opinion anyway
ultimately its up too you

I would call them on the phone and ask, if they are ebay personnel. This ensures you, you are talking to someone from ebay and not someone who just pretends to be a rep. from them.

Well mind you when you click to buy an item it logs on to a secure server HTTPS. So by that if I am not mistaken means you are protected if you pay by credit card and if the item doesnt turn up then you let your credit card company deal with it.
No loss to you. But I dont think calling them will make any difference to your DOUBT...because if they are pro's they will easily fool anyone.
Goodluck.. I would have given it a go, but as I dont need a P900 il give it a miss.

That's not what https means! https just means that the data is sent encrypted from the server to you and vice vera. Normal http is not encrypted. It doesn't guarantee you in the least that you can get back your money if you have been fooled!
