Ebay Quandry?

Is their any credible reason why someone would ask for two invoices totaling the full amount of the item purchased? Seems a bit strange to me!

Well, I'm ALWAYS thinking scam, so while I can't identify this - it screams scam to me.

Ask him why, or tell him no. Then it's no problem.

Don't do it, you're only protected for one of the amounts on the same item. They could claim after receipt of item they already paid and you are out the other amount. Be wary of people like that.

Both are scams, one only affects the seller
