It's a scam Danny. Report it to e-bay or the samba, they should tell you what to do next, I assume you will have to send it back, but not sure how you can avoid the buyer leaving you bad feedback. Don't cash the check !!!

Take the check to your bank and see what they think.

I e-mailed the guy back and told him I'd send the check back and if he wanted the part to send cash. Have not heard back, amagine that.

I am glad you did not send the parts to him. That check would probably have bounced.
