This is an odd one...Ebay potential buyer...

[2011G6E]

Got a message about an engine I'm selling on ebay...(http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Toyota-18.../322006007267?) from someone whose listed as being an ebay member in Switzerland...but will be arranging shipping to the USA.
The question from the guy went like this on my ebay messages:

"hi there,

i am interested in your engine but would have it shipped to usa. i already contacted a shipper in australia (mainfreight.com.au) and requested what pickup and delivery to USA costs. but this shall not be your problem.

here are some questions i have:

- does the engine run? meaning, did you see/experience it running before it was removed?
- what is the condition of the engine in general?
- does it have high compression?
- does it burn oil or use a lot of oil?
- any leaks?
- any modifications done to the engine (e.g. different camshaft, or ported / polished head)?
- anything that would need to be addressed?"

It's just a second hand engine (albeit a pretty desirable one)...I was assured it was running when I bought it but I haven't run it myself.

This just seems so suspect it isn't funny...someone in Switzerland, buying and engine to ship to the USA...?
The shipping company is apparently legit...I've looked them up.

Just seems weird to me someone would buy a Toyota engine all the way from there to ship to the USA...rings alarm bells. He isn't asking any of the usual red light questions like "Western Union" or expecting me to arrange and pay for shipping.
Anyone had something similar...?
