It's not "under control" yet, but I've got the gaming "cave" side of the basement set up. Still lots of arranging on the hobby desk. Writing desk (with computer) is mostly under control.

I received a reply to my "wanting to buy" topic of Roundhouse Arch Roof cars.
Here is the message:

I got a message from Mallen990 as a local seller, it's my old friend and very honest person, message me about HO, Union Pacific Arch-Roof coach cars by Roundhouse for sale... Thought I'm still interested and I've get one few days ago, kindly check on him maybe it's still available... Here's his Email [email protected].

The message came from "loopki98".
I checked on this member and seems he just joined about 45 minutes before he send me this message. I am just a bit skeptical here.
I sent an e-mail to [email protected] telling I was interested in the cars. I also sent him a copy of the message I received from the forum.
I am curious of what to expect.
Any input here would be appreciated.

Take care....John

Sounds like a scammer to me. Just too many coincidences, and when was the last time you got a message from anyone saying "it's my old friend and very honest person",
the language is off.
 
Not enough screens and not big enough screens
You sound like my son. :D His home office looks like something out of Star Trek. My workstations look like flat screen TVs with keyboards.

It may be hard for you guys to understand, but some of us are happy with what we have.

I was happy with my Commodore 64 connected to my TV. Time marches on. I'm just slow to keep up.

Since that "person" has already been banned, I don't think you should have any dealings with them.
A 5 second Google search of that email shows a dozen hits as a possible scammer.
