I sent the "seller" another email, several days ago, asking him if he could
provide a couple of other pictures, that were current and of the actual Tasc R30
he was selling.  I told him that I was still interested in the computer, but
that the pictures he sent me were ones that I recognized from several previous
auctions on eBay and that the auctions were cancelled early by eBay.  I
suggested that he was only "borrowing" these pictures to sell his, but for me to
be certain he actually had a Tasc to sell, I would need additional pictures.

We had emailed back and forth several times, and he was always very prompt in
replying to my questions.  However, for some strange reason, he never replied to
this last email of mine.  :-)

I really wonder how many other "suckers" he tried to sell this to.

These are the types of persons that make me want to take a refresher course on
my Viet Nam "commando" training.

Kung Fu Regards,
