acme,

It is not a scam. I have done this 15-20 times when selling stuff on ebay. Most of these guys let me keep an extra $100-200 for doing them this service. Getting US dollars is worth a lot to them. I'm sure, just like anything else, there are some bad apples, but 99% of the time this is totally legit and win-win for everyone.
