Thank You very much, JV. I couldn’t spot any one thing even on slightly better pics he’d sent me subsequent to this.

The good thing is, iron clad return policy and weeks to have it inspected.

Will post better ones once I receive it.

No internals pics. Due diligence for payment is best you can do.

I understand, Von, but it was a very sweet deal, and although the possibility of a box of rocks is there, I’m taking every precaution I can think of.

I will open the package in front of cameras and film the entire thing separately in my own device, continuously.

The money is in escrow until all parties are satisfied and I will have two weeks to have it checked out.

If I’m the victim of a scam here, he’s gonna have to be a grandmaster chess playing magician.
