    Hi Community:
    I posted the above for a Seiko a few days ago and I just got a PM from someone with 0 post and 0 likes going by Msgtfraser. Could this be a scam? Moderators guidance please? Thanks.

    Same here. I now see they are gone. I thought it was a bit odd and googled the email. It's nice to see that this was taken care of so quickly.

    Me too. I was even dumb enough to send a email. He said to me he had some hands for my 1958 kontiki project... ::facepalm1::
