Exclamation Another scam?

I found this FJ Edwards English wheel on eBay and the listing is very similar to other scam listings reported here on AllMetalshaping (Ranalah and Edwards). I also think that I have seen the pictures in another listing before. BE AWARE!

When I bought my Ranalah, I asked the seller for more pictures of the machine packed and ready to go. This to ensure that he was in the possession of the machine. It worked fine.

Thanks Marcus! The seller has zero feed back, that is a dead give way!

It may be someones first foray into E-bay.

But if someone states a desire is any one on group near enough to go over there?

Marcus is right, its not the first time its been listed and I would guess within the last 6 months. Strange that there has been 5/6 all from Scotland.

This has definitely been listed before. I can't remember how I sent a report before but it needs doing for this item.

EDIT: just reported it, hopefully it will get pulled.

That was the machine I reported last time! I've seen it listed at least 4 times now, it's always the same with the blue sheet behind it. Going to report it again now.

Both listings have been removed from eBay. By reporting fraudulent listings, we can stop at least a few buyers from loosing a substantial amount of money. The Edward's wheel had already three bidders, before it was removed.

This is a great and friendly community, helping other people for free. We need more of this in the World!

I live just a few miles from Arbroath and asked the seller If I could go and view, needless to say I had no reply...
