Really sorry to hear about this, never good when someone in our community lets the side down in such a big way. Mr Marples is, or was, on some of the MeWe groups I frequented and was always asking the most basic of questions regarding his latest acquisitions ( I think he’s buy all the cheapy/non sold auction lots a lot of the time ). That’s fair enough as no one knows everything, but I would then see him advertising the same thing n a different group apparently ‘recently serviced’ or similar by him. That got my spider sense tingling straight away as he obviously had no clue really what he was buying, and seemingly even less of an idea of what he was doing to them prior to selling on….
Suffice to say I steered well clear. Hopefully you’ll get this sorted before too long somehow.
All help, advice and wrist slaps gratefully received.
Most sales open to swaps for older BSA’s, projects and or incomplete/bits. Currently quietly developing a hankering for a nice S10 BBK………..
