Just thought I would warn anyone looking to buy the large Adorini humi that is on ebay, someone posted a link to it but I can't find it.
this is the item

i have been in contact with the seller and did a deal for ?100 and arranged to collect on Saturday. I then noticed that the first pic is of a Adorini the rest are of a cheap copy, I have pulled out of the deal and told the seller she is selling a fake.

How can you tell it's a fake MO

How can you tell it's a fake MO

the wrong hydrometer
the lock is in the wrong place
the door closes into the sides instead of onto the sides
the draws are not ribbed
the hinge is a normal hinge like a door it should be a quadrant hinge
the finish is very poor when the door is open

Thanks for that MO what did the seller say when you mentioned it was fake.

She did reply eventually, apologised.

She did reply eventually, apologised.

Really?
I never got anything back... Just a cancelled bid and the auction cancelled.

She probably put it on gumtree or someone else made her an offer she couldn't refuse
