petercoulson Posted April 30, 2012 Report Share Posted April 30, 2012 I know the listing has ended but this looks like a con and whoever has bought it really needs to ask themselves some serious questions: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Blake-DN-76-Shoe-repair-machine?item=150802917501&cmd=ViewItem&_trksid=p5197.m7&_trkparms=algo%3DLVI%26itu%3DUCI%26otn%3D3%26po%3DLVI%26ps%3D63%26clkid%3D8058138484073816002#ht_500wt_1219 I sent the seller a question myself but received no reply. For a start it is a seller with no history based in the very north of Scotland. Next it is a photo of a DN76 that was for sale not that long ago in South Wales and it isn't a complete machine, some very expensive parts are missing. Then you read the description of the machine, it is describing a finisher!! Unless DN76 now have the option of brushes and scouring bands. Gullible and con are words that come to mind but you never know, the buyer may have struck it lucky and got a DN76 for a fair price. But i doubt it.

Gray Posted April 30, 2012 Report Share Posted April 30, 2012 I recognise those colours from pics on here somewhere. Aren't those skippy's colours? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevenB Posted April 30, 2012 Report Share Posted April 30, 2012 When I advertised an engraving machine on eBay, a short while later all my pictures & description appeared as if the item was for sale again. I knew it wasn't as I'd sold the machine privately & it turned out to be a con. Apparently not a rare occurrence & I'd suspect this is what's happened here. There are some real basts out there.

Tom D Posted April 30, 2012 Report Share Posted April 30, 2012 while back i say the 700 that was for sale in wales up for sale in scotland i thought it was a long way to go then sell it must be a scam same colour scheme as well perhaps the welsh lad who sold it could answer the question who did he sell it to ?

skippy Posted May 1, 2012 Report Share Posted May 1, 2012 Defo a scammer, this and a few other bits of kit have been sold then listed a little later with same pics and often same description by sellers with zero history in silly locations Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grahamparker Posted May 1, 2012 Report Share Posted May 1, 2012 Your not allowed to sell Key cutting machines as part of Ebay rules, so by saying it's a shoe repair machine you can get away with it. BUT BEWARE !!! if you have a problem you will get no back up from E-bay as it breaks there selling rules. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
