Dunno, EMT's are starting to fetch big prices and that one looks in really good nick.

The Leaks, well... I wouldn't but these mostly go over seas, Japan etc. Big collectors over there.

You're all such lovely, trusting fellows....am I alone in smelling a scam here?
Same(?) Dumfries and Galloway seller has other unlikely high end/vintage gems...
Text, syntax and degree of technical knowledge vary from listing to listing...
Dumfries and Galloway is not the most convenient uk destination to travel to, to check kit out.

But I could be wrong...

Here'a little known science fact for you. I replied to 100 high end sales listings on london Craiglist during the month of Sept. I kept using different email addresses to ensure I'd ellicit repsonses from the sellers. out of the 100 I replied to, guess how many were legit sales, which offered the chance to try before buy and/or cash on collection or even delivery and cash.

Go on....

That was it out of 100, there were 5 or so obvious repeat sellers and frankly it looks like one of them is onto Gumtree now. Email him, see if he's called Dan.. lol
