I wanted put a warning out there about a fraudulent eBay listing from Italy... there is an Edison Spring Motor with a Bettini attachment listed buy it now for 570 euro... what a deal right? Except that machine is sitting in my phonograph room. I have reported the auction to eBay. But BEWARE! Link below.

I just had a look, and it seems to have been taken down already. Thanks for acting quickly to protect us!

As a thought, if history is a guide, the scammer will try to put it back up. Any chance you could post a photo of your machine so people would recognize it?
