Re: [Fairlight-CMI] Scam Fairlight on ebay...

2004-03-24 by feldmann@xs4all.nl

Hello Jean-Bernard,

It is true that looking for bargains on e-bay is a bit contradictory.
However, if someone is unaware of the Fairlight list, a likely place to
find a Fairlight is a forum or e-bay. Some sellers may have decent
intentions, some may not. We now have, thanks to a reader of this forum
who also follows e-bay, an example of a very strange situation. We still
do not know for certain that the New York seller is a scam. His ad may
have been copied by the person saying it is in London, although the latter
says to be registered in France and did so yesterday with zero feedback.

We'll find out.


Best regards,
Harald.

by saying all the world has that there are supers bargains on ebay... the
prices go flame! it is anything... the proof the last IIX which left has
3050 USS whereas this same salesman bought two years ago for 2600 USS on
ebay... anything! it is not thanks to the Fairlight list that one will be
able to make good bargain! bye!"
