Help with International deal--Is this a scam???

We asked questions about a 4 wheeler, and got offered a deal to take it now with everything included in one price so the person could get their business rolling. They have about 5 4 wheelers for sale on ebay right now. Our red flags were raised at the 0 feedback and not a registered user. They said they have to sell to someone in the US and have them leave positive feedback for the not a registered user to go away, but that they are a registered user. Item is in France, and they will ship Fed Ex. They said 3-4 days to receive item...is that possible to go from France to TX that fast? Other scary part is the instant messaged us after we sent them ASQ. They want money sent to western union bank made out to us, then after we receive it, change it to their name since we asked for cod or something else to guarantee us. What are your opinions? My DH thinks it is a real good deal, but is scared. In other words we could get it from France and with shipping and taxes it is cheaper then we could find in US.

How do you know if this is a scam???

What do you do to protect yourself, and still be able to get a deal.

Thank You for any help you can give us.
