It would have been a deal at $1300. I had emailed decebal a couple months back and he finally replied saying "how much are you available to pay me for it?" Give me a free plane ticket to Romania and we'll talk, tovarich.

I emailed the link at the bottom advising them of the fraud.

(A GOOD THING...maybe the dude finally got caught.)

Yea, that's what it is. Same birthday, same identical looks, they MUST be twins! Think of it, the only identical twins in Alembic history and I could own both! I gotta hurry up and go bid on it! LOL Jonathan, if I ever do decide to sell The Other One, you get first crack.
