Great price, but seems suspiciously low for a relatively new model that's hard to come by.

I sent an email requesting some pretty specific photos. Maybe it is legit. Maybe it isn't.

No response to my initial request for more specific photos.

However, I received an immediate response to a second attempt (using a different email), when asking the seller, "Is this still available?" without any requests for photographic proof that this is legit.

In that response, it did not appear that the seller is a native English speaker, which differs greatly from the advert copy.

Definitely a scam. Dude ghosted me twice, only replying to me when I asked whether it was still available. Any question beyond that was answered by crickets.

Another case of tubus-nonexistus

Doing a reverse image search, it looks like the original pics were pulled from the German Kleinanzeigen (craigslist-esque) site.

That's what I thought but I was unsure as I did get any hits.
