Wim is an excellent and honest seller.  I buy a lot of items from KD85,
paying with either my credit card or wire transfers.  He is honest and
will kindly help you.  I agree with Bill, it is better contacting with
Wim than using other corporations to do the payments.

A wire transfer is an excellent choice if you do not want to give
him your credit card number, indeed.  If you know what a Soekris
computer is, you will be really happy buying from Wim.
