Caught (Risco Connections Related)?

edited August 2005 in Strut Central
A friend of mine in Sweden sent me an email regarding a Risco Connections 12 that went like this
Have you litened to my mumblings on your answer-machine? I bought it. But
before I pay, can you please check the pic of it, and confirm the
authenticity (or not):
eBay#: 4753468006
Unfortunately I didn't get to him before the auction ended and he won. I replied to his query
Sorry I'm late Magnus, but that looks like a boot - the text is all out of
wack. Matix should read JIH - 1001A and then the same thing with the "A"
scratched out and a "B" beside it.

Hope That Helps, Kevin.

P.S. You can have them contact me as a reference
My friend sent them my email and the corresponding matrix numbers to have them reply with this
hello, I'm sorry but someone stole this from our store yesterday and it
was too late to end the item.

Our apologies.[/b]

    Maybe those who stole this fine 12" also stole Edvard Munch's "The Scream."

    Naah, those were Norwegians.

    So he tells them that he's not willing to purchase it because he's realized that it's a boot, and they counter with "Well you can't purchase it anyway, because it was just stolen"?

    Or am I not reading this right?

    Beware of the fact that this ebayseller never[/b] has anything other than reissues, bootlegs and compilations up for sale. Just a heads up.
