Same here.. this one stinks. Plus the pictures are not actual and these machines can be tracked.. very unlikely to be there right now.

I tried to go go further and make a deal.
The price they're asking is 1/5 of the real price.
They're using a stolen ID and badly made fake documents.
They're using only using a cybercafe for communicating.
They are refusing any visit from an agent.
They're eluding any questions regarding details on the source or history of the equipment.
Their phone contact is not working.
The "contract" and "invoice" they are sending is improvised using this page https://offerte.tips/nl/zzp/offerte-voorbeelden/offerte-voorbeeld-in-pdf and full of spelling mistakes.
They are using old images from june 2014 probably from that Gallo records plant that was in Africa, I'm not sure as
I can share details interested. And posting the machines pics here if the moderators are approving it.

Besides Record Industry, the new Deepgrooves and the recordplant from Johnny Hoes (Telstar) in the old days there were no other recordpressingplants in Netherland. All 3 dont/didnt work with Finebilts or that other automated press seen on the pictures. This is for sure not located in Netherland.

Yes, please post the pics. Sounds like you've done some good detective work.

Some of the pics might be from a defunct Jamaican plant.

Could this actually be machines owned by Galvited?

The African plant only had Toolex presses. What ever happened to that?

I think Jamaica is more probable.

Where did these photos come from?

The pics are from the announcers. I received the pics by email along with the other documents for the sale. They're saying "my husband bought it from two brothers in NY" no contacts, names or any additional info.

Yes Jamaica is the second possibility.. I also wonder what happened to that sale in Africa.

some presses are painted silver... all the stuff looks very worn out...
I don´t know, if the plant was ever sold.

Hi there ,

I have contacted them and asked for location and adress .
and why they want to sell in the Netherlands ?
I give a price and they said it's ok .
they wanted to sell me 2 presses and a extruder .
the rest was sold they said.
now I see that after my questions everything is removed.
So this is fake ! They used the name Emeldam but that is also a fake name.
