Sounds like the German didn't come through with the merchandise? But this is $100 cheaper if I remember correctly, as I've been watching your posts on this with great interest.
One thing I would recommend. Open up a new bank account for this transaction only. That way nobody can take out any more than you want them to.
I hope this works out for you. I suspect that it will. Especially if this guy knows you post on this and other forums, and that he should get more business from the USA if you give good reports.
Is this the first device with the external cord going to a control box, or is the second one you discussed where you will need to get a memory card and has no mechanical parts. I have been trying to figure out how that would work. Does this one not have an external control box?
Also, if you have the time, would you mind emailing me the photo and any specs you might have? I'd really appreciate it.
