    No I didnt think so either, if I were closer would ask for his number then go see it.

    not saying this seller is one but too many scammers on bmfa not to take all precautions.
    All the best

        Could be a Grey Import. He probably ordered from HK (where they are available) and his now selling it in the UK via BMFA. Might be a genuine reason for sale or wanting to make a quick buck or two.

        Having said that, £209 is a pretty good price considering the prices being banded around when they do become available in the shops here!

          Exactly what I was thinking - I even looked at the usual sources in HK for prices the other day...

              Good on him though

              I did this with some OS car engines a few years back, still have one brand new in the box. Was destined for my EB4 but I stopped using it and never blew up the Hyper 8 Port that was in it

                price in HK is $275 US which is about £165

                If he bought a few over in a suitcase he could be making a few quid.... fair play i would if i was travelling from HK. Nice small boxes and easy to carry

                  Ok guy's, I have mailed this chap and indeed he does have the said engine for sale. Although not just up the road he is only 15miles from me. Do I have to get a look at this beauty for anyone?

                      Well I've asked for pics and the reply was " I'll send a pic of the box but it's still sealed and I don't want to open it" Make your own minds up, Like I say it's not too far from me so if your interested I could always be a go between or sumit.. (obviously for fuel cost)
                      Gotta say the bloke does seem on the level, he says I can collect in person and you aint gonna do that if you don't have the goods, are you.
