    "I received a email from this guy who was telling me that the Oiler in that group was fake. For what I paid it wasn't bad at all, but he said that he collects NPM's and buys donor parts until he finds Original ones and asked me if I wanted to recover some money that he would gladly purchase the Oiler and a couple of the other parts."

    So if it was fake, why was he so keen to buy it?

    Patrick, Your reply is exactly why I posted this. It just seemed to me he probably missed out and then emailed me to see if I would go for it.

    I don't know if I missed it, but you can clearly see the size difference in the Letters...Hmm !!!
