How about this ad on Marktplaats.nl (dutch web site)
http://link.marktplaats.nl/160048150
This guy is selling a OCM for 100 euros and wants other pics of msx computers to sell not the computer it self.
looks like fraud to me ... |

As I'm not a trader nor Ebay/MP specialist, I can't vent my own experiences here. But MRC has received signals recently about this seller being a con. Whether you should buy or not buy is up to you, but if *I* would buy it, I would make the trade in real life and only after testing it. But that's strictly my personal opinion.

I think this ad is quite humorous. The guy needs new pictures of MSX computers so he can make new ads 
I'd advice to make some fun of that person and keep your wallet closed at all time

when I saw his closing "gr Alex W", I first thought it was Alex Wulms ;p
However, Alex Wekker ('Alarmclock') sounds pretty good in this case, as alarm bells should be ringing with such ads ;p

This ad is a practical joke posted by a visitor from this MSX Posse forum topic. It is a payback for the real guy's fraud actions, it seems that this Alex Wekker has deceived previous buyers and this is sort of a warning against buying from him. In other words, the person that placed that ad impersonates Alex Wekker.
Don't take that ad seriously, and I guess it's not wise to buy from the real Alex Wekker either. |
