What, Gouki?

He's not called Chris, he doesn't live in Brighton and his car doesn't look like the one pictured in the auction.

So I'm not sure how you figure that one out?

This is exactly the reason i have,nt stuck the blokes name up.99.9% sure i know who it is but want to be 100% certain.See the ebay item has now been withdrawn.So job done but that dont help Gouki does it.

it would be pretty easy to get his real name and address off the ebay invoice and/or paypal payment (if you still have it)

The idea is a good one in principle, but don't see how anyone would pay for advice when so many people share information for nothing on the internet. As with anything for sale on eBay, caveat emptor/let the buyer beware!

if the guy is selling his own expertise then good on him, but i suspect he is just copy and pasting from the zone :?
