    Hi Guys,

    Has anyone noticed that the site was only registered on 16/12/2020 !
    No contact phone No:
    Email contact to a different address.
    Registrant details withheld.

    Very dodgy to me.
    Best Regards:
    Baron J.

    I actually bought something from that site. Immediately after I was looking at other things and got worried. I have received a couple of emails confirming order but nothing else yet. Will wait a while a see what happens.

    Maybe they're just selling the photos of the lathe?
