That is classic fraudster response. His registered email is [email protected] . He's banned...

Thanks Tim!

I clicked on a couple and there is a message in their white board and the statistics says the page has been visited over 1,000 TIMES ! WTH is going on with that ? Are they passing messages to others in their group thru this forum ?

I also received the similar response that napa68 got. It was regarding the NOS mirror I am looking for. He apparently picked one up at Norwood and wants me to email him at at [email protected]

Yeah, his friend, Norwood, had the brackets I was looking for. apparently he/they have read enough about Norwood on here to try to use that as bait.
