Cheap yellow SF Miura anyone? (Surely this is an ideal space filler for some of out less advanced members?)

I had watched this seller very carefully for a while now and he has a tendency of slipping a few suspects among his normal customs,esp the rare landys.My suspicion/guess is that if a base-swop is a failure he sells it as a base-swop but if he feels that it could pass as a genuine piece to unsuspecting buyers then he sells it off as genuine.Also take note of his Commer Ice cream vans with Gpw's.
He now has the taste of jam....
Check out his sales.

Numi,

I too have been watching this seller with his ambigious comments and non commital descriptions!!

His listings are full of repaints and base swaps and i wouldn't give him a penny of my hard earned cash!!

STAY WELL CLEAR OF THIS SELLER IS WHAT I WOULD ADVISE!!!!!

Basically only for swapping the black seat into a red model to make a rare one. No windscreen

For the new members on the forum.This seller is a known fraudster from Uk and hes back with a vengeance.Beware!!!!!!

Numi,

Isn't it amazing the number of these people who are lucky enough to have not only a blue SF 12c, but also a gold RW 12c to sell

I know, sarcasm is the lowest form of wit, but I don't think I've ever come across a seller who just had one or the other, and they are surprisingly common for something so supposedly rare...

Thanks for the tip-offs!

Cheers,
Gavin

Heres a Gold Landy that this seller had passed off as genuine recently to an unsuspecting buyer for $900.

Anyone looking for the very hard to find "Matchbox Originals" #1 road roller in ORANGE?

Condon Dumper for £40

Firstly, I realise this is on etsy NOT ebay but this seemed the most appropriate thread to put it on.
Secondly, I've no idea if this is a good price or not, but Nick's Guide mentions they are difficult to find complete, and this looks complete.

Another etsy listing - not cheap, but if you really want a 60 Morris with no rear window.... This one is in the US, and if you do go for it I would recommend making an offer rather than just buying (I certainly tend to accept reasonable offers)
