Is It A Scam?

Did Sam get potentially scammed? He found a replacement antique lamp stand (more old than antique) to replace our broken one in our lounge room held together with black tape. $50. It was out in the Eastern Suburbs. I was willing to go and get it, as it had the old fashion white cup holder that we need, but the woman said she would drop it off. She said she was heading into town on Thursday for some Anzac Day nonsense, but she could drop it off today. 

Nothing. She didn't show. And she's not responding to messages. And she hasn't taken the item down as sold.

So, she has Sam’s name and address. Is that data collection, rather than legitimate sale? You have to wonder.

Oh, I don't know, but you have to wonder?

I wanted the lamp, though.
