Hi,

Cool lathe, but I think this is a scam. Perhaps a hacked ebay account. The seller is from India and the main items sold are shoes. There are some crazy vintage audio and music items up for auction along with the shoes. These all start at $88.88 with a 2 day auction length. He states that you cannot contact him through ebay and must use a gmail account. Very fishy!
