been talking with this guy in london he's got DSE subframe and all the stuff I need but of course he want me to send him money first ( yeah ok! )he is not willing to ship COD. I personally think its A scam or one hell of a deal.
never wants to talk on phone ( dentist operation ) as far as details about components he dosn't know, selling it for a friend who happens to be out of reach. all the makings of a SCAM ?

but if happen to be true, it would be nice to find a reputable member on that side of the world that could inspect and make sure is the real deal that would be grate.
so if any members in london please send me a PM.
thanks

Call DSE mon. morning and ask them if he has ever been a customer.Or if they have ever shipped anything to London.If it sounds to go to be true it prob. is.Good Luck:thumbsup:

Frank - I believe DSE puts serial numbers on their subs. Ask him for it and then verify w DSE...

DSE has serial numbers and know who, when and where. Just buy direct.

If its too good to be true... might be worth coughing up the extra money to get one you know will show up!

I got pictures and serial numbers but the only way that DSE could berify was if I had the original buyers name.
yeah way too good to true that's why I wouldnt send a penny but just figured i would post on here to see if any one could actually see it in person.

Neither would I brother. But, the sad thing about it is, there is some guy out there that is just starting out and will not realize this and think this is a hell deal of a lifetime that only comes around once. :(

Well I guess this thread will at least serve the purpose of making other people aware of a potential scam.
In general I don't think any one would send this guy any $ just on his word but yeah there is definitely a chance some one would.

The big thing in these scams is opening them up to the masses.....

Most people are gonna be smart enough to sense something is wrong........ but open it up to tens of thousands (if not more) and you will find someone that will fall for it....its all about the odds.
