I need a little help from a UK, German, Greek or Israel member.
Hello
I am hoping someone can help me. There is a piece of gear listed for sale on a website based in Cyprus. The problem is that I am located in Canada, but the website only takes messages from the UK Germany, Israel and Greece. I have tried, but there is no way for me to get a message through. Would anyone be so kind as to relay my contact information to them by replying to their ad?
thanks

I just went and googled bazaraki.com and asked if it was legit. You need to do the same and then get back to us. Lots of scams on what's considered a "legitimate" site. There's even a site showing how they can scam people. Seems like having a phone number from outside your country to make contact with the seller is a great way to make it impossible to contact them should something go wrong. All the best, |
"the website only takes messages from the UK Germany, Israel and Greece." I'm sorry, but despite the fact that the website looks legit, one has to at least wonder why any website that's main function is to sell stuff, would only allow you to contact them if you are based in 4 random locations. Surely there are other options available. |
“I went on the website and in 10 seconds I could contact any seller via whatsapp. No such phone number required”. For me when I clicked on the ad it came up with “call #xxxxxxxxx” when you click on that, a drop down menus appears with only those countries I have listed with no manual input option I didn’t see the WhatsApp option. I will have another look. Thanks for this. |
@pkvintage yes, send me a DM and I will be happy to |

@pkvintage I replied to your message, let me know if you received it and if the number was removed. Here is the sellers number: 357 nine nine 67V 9V7 |
I live in Israel, I can send them a message for you. But my thinking is that if they only accept messages from those 4 countries, perhaps they might only wish to ship to those 4 countries? Send me a private message with their information and what you want me to ask them. I’ll also ask them if they ship to Canada. If they won’t ship to Canada, then you’ll need to find someone in the countries that they ship to to accept the package and send it to you. I’ve done that before a few times when I was living in the US and only wanted to ship to the Continental US and the Buyer lived in Europe. I had them get me a US address to ship to and that person handled the shipping to Europe.
Because of our current situation here in Israel, I would not feel comfortable being the party to accept a package on your behalf and then ship to Canada. As we are in a war on 7 fronts by many of our neighbors, not everyone loves us, and I fear that when someone sees Israel as the destination address, they might accidentally on purpose mishandle the package. However, Cypress is very close to Israel, so the shipping to Israel wouldn’t be so bad except you have to add 17% VAT to the item cost + shipping. |
