Hi Tom I have done this from time to time. Its best to get something specific in writing about how and when you will be making the progress payments. If you do encounter any problems with the dealer you will not have the benefit of being able to lodge a dispute with paypal because the transaction payments will probably be more than 45 days old. However if the dealer is well known and reputable you should be fine. I had one such transaction that took more than a year to complete and by the time I received the final payment I had lost out heavily on the exchange rates but c'est la vie. Regards John

Pennock To: [email protected] Sent: Friday, October 10, 2008 11:50 AM Subject: [MOPO] Delayed Payment Transactions??? I wanted to ask a question of the group who are largely composed of dealers. I am interested in buying an original poster from Spain but I can't afford to make the purchase all at one time. I wanted to use the time payment method. A deposit and then about three payments to pay the poster off. The dealer would only ship the poster when the entire funds are received. Is this common among dealers to do or allow this type of a transaction? The poster I am interested in is one I have searched for for a very long time. With the way the economy is this is the ONLY way I can make the purchase by time payment. I thought maybe the price was negotiable but the dealer feels the price is ok. Anyway, I thought I would ask if this method of payment is done much or?
