This is the scale I chose for the lottery. It's a shame all of the exploitation of these beautiful instruments.

So is this legit or not?
He said he posted a video and it's here, which sounds great

(About Pygmy B) I don't think that having forgotten or not knowing the name of the scale is an obvious sign of scam in this case. Batch 1 was a few years ago, I don't know how the scale list was handled. Looking at his video this guy does not seem to have a very close connection to his instrument... From previous discussions it also seems that on some instruments the serial number is hard to find. This sale has more signs of being legit than of being a scam, but it's not verified. Proceed with caution and always use Paypal on eBay. Think of asking of Skype-type proof before bidding or before paying. Etc.

You are free to express your opinion if a sale is legit or not, but reflect your degree of certainty in your phrasing.

(About Golden Gate) Please use this other thread : viewtopic.php?f=14&t=9314

Please refrain from discussing simultaneous sales in the same thread, this is very confusing.

Some days I sound like an admin/mod... :giggle:

Well broussel, it DOES help with the organization - and for me, comprehension as well. so I thank you for your posts. You probably ease the load for the moderaters, too! <3

I personally have no certainty and that is why there was no certainty in my statement. A definate procced with caution yes but I think anyone spending thousands should be procceding with caution anyway but you never know.

Even if it isn't a scam, his demo video seems like he thinks playing a Halo is the same thing is playing whackamole. If that poor plan has been played at lot, it's been beaten quite a bit. The guy obviously thinks of it as a drum...
