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

PK

I would exercise caution on this.

The website is based in Cyprus and seems completely legitimate.

The problem is you have to have a phone number from one of the countries I have listed including Cyprus. 

m.bazaraki.com

there are approximately 300,000 items listed on there

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,

I went on the website and in 10 seconds I could contact any seller via whatsapp. No such phone number required

"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.
