Not a chance. Leave it. Its horsesh*t. Talking rubbish. Or its stolen.
Even at the current pace of DSLR developement, this is still a great camera.
All you'll be is $700.00 poorer.
If in doubt about an ad:
Ask to pick it up. If the seller prevaricates - its a hoax.
From where was it originally purchased and what's the serial number? No answer or the answer doesn't jibe? Its a hoax.
The seller is happy to send it as gift to avoid import duty? - Its a hoax.
No history of the seller on any of the photo forums or e-bay? Its a...you get the idea.
Why is this man so learned in the ways of on-line purchasing, I hear you cry?
Why should I believe this person whom I've never met and whose spelling is so questionable?
Because by ignoring all the above, I am $1300 the poorer and as such, much the wiser grasshopper!

I have already told him I think he is sus, and cancelled the deal.

He started off being in sydney, now he is overseas and wanted to send it through TNT express. I know $700 hundred is way to cheap, that's why I would never trust that seller, only if I had it in my hand would I part with any money.
