is this site legit or not
HI ,
I'm very glad that the item is still available!
First of all I want to apologize for my English and for
my late answer, my mom was sick and I was out of town.
I decided to buy your item so please tell if it`s
necesarry to bid on it.
Like I said you in my first email I want you to ship it
via FedEx 2 day Express because it will be a gift and I
need it fast. Because I want to be safe for both of us
we will close this deal using http://www.Escrow-LTD.com
A very trustable and professional escrow service.
This service will protect both of us.Please go to
http://www.Escrow-LTD.com and open a new account with them.
Then INITIATE the transaction and please include the ebay
item# on the description.
I'm already a member and i'm waiting for you to start
the transactreion. For inspection period i think 2 days
(from the day I receive the package) it`s enough.
After you will start the transaction you will see that
I'm a serious person and I have closed 8 positive
transactions through them.
Best Regards/

It's a scam - don't touch it. The style and wording are very similar to other things I have seen or read about.

The registration page is not secure. Don't sign up for anything. There was probably a delay while he set up the web page

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

If they start hassling you by phone say you'll set Kindoki on them.
They'll soon leave you alone after that! 
Cheers,
James

This is a genuine escrow site. Note the https:// which denotes its' secure status. Tell him
you'll go through the proper channels or not at all.
