He is selling used VCR mechanisms as brand new when the pictures show clearly it was cleaned, You can see the wear marks of the P guides and mounting screws.

Sometimes you can see how scammy somebody is just from the username.

Something like "great_price48756" says (at best) "I have no imagination", or (at worst) "I'm a scammer from China"

This situation always reminds me of The Big Bang Theory, an early episode where Howard was "scamming for foreign women" online (his vernacular), and he was using the name "wealthybigpenis".

Thanks for the community warning. It's getting to a point now where I need to just make sticky, like other sites do (example).
