Is this the super-collection in Pilot Point, Texas, or a different one?

We're looking at him, more soon. But I agree, ODD.
*edit* Nothing we can see shows him as legit or a scammer, though we are all thinking scam. So if you interact with him, be careful.

I'd like to invite david00021 to provide images of the two swords he got from his source, preferably with a note showing his username and the current date. Also, some kind of prof of purchase showing that they came from the recommended source. It would be very helpful to those he has contacted to see them, and would go towards establishing a level of trust that does not yet exist, seeing as how we recently had a run of a gentleman who also "Had a friend in Texas" who was responding to Wanted adds and was removed from the forum for suspicious activities.

Same here. I even wrote petergathige.two@gmail.com for an Albion Oakeshott and got sent pics copied from the Albion page, and a very good price proposal, also I was asked for my full shipping address. This was my reply:
“Hello Peter, thank you for your reply. I have ordered many swords from the US to Europe in the past, but only from reputable members of the sbg forum, without problems. Please don’t take the following the wrong way, but I also got scammed in the past and for this reason would like to ask you if you’d be willing to send me a picture of the sword next to an actual newspaper from your city, including your ID card or driver’s license. Otherwise I’d have no way to know if you are really the actual owner of the sword or if this e-mail address is indeed belonging to a serious seller. If you’d be willing to do so, I’d love to buy the Oakeshott from you via PayPal, adding fees on top of your price. I hope for your understanding for my cautiousness. Thank you in advance. Best regards Christian“
No answer yet.
