At lunch at home, I Googled ' Alpina Chainsaw' just to see what would be there on recent threads. I also scrolled down on the pictures . My eyes caught a very familiar picture, as I took it myself a few years ago. It appears this picture is used by a trading company who advertises NOS goods only, in this case clutches for the Alpina 90 and 120 that I had advertised myself on Ebay this summer. The whole ad by this company Wefinexi (?) is illustrated with my pictures I took and used myself on Ebay at one point. Most saws depicted are in the US with their new caretakers btw. Now I do not mind so much that my creative property is used without my permission: once you upload a picture on a public forum like Ebay you basicly wave any rights. The point is, the ad suggests you can actually buy these clutches - most of which are still with me here in the Netherlands.
So I do wonder if this company is able to follow through on any possible order made. They could have their own supply, but advertise with my pictures - or is this is a plain scam? Any ideas? Mike
