    I don't mind that Anakin, and I do like projects if the price is right, but a 6 feedback seller in Mexico concerns me a little. Alex from Mexico is solid but who knows with this guy.

    Doesn't mean I won't roll the dice, but it gives pause.

    I'm not recommending this one by any stretch of the imagination, the case looks to be chipped/damaged and the white tachy ring has suffered from the famous black gasket bleeding lurgy. I find with these that unless the case is perfect they can look very scruffy indeed.

    Yea the chipping at the bottom of the case is a concern, but is it chipping or is it muck... perhaps some more photos from the seller would help with that.
