The Observer has been registered for just over a month. Even if the guy is a genuine honest person, there's no way to know. You'd be crazy to part with your cash on this thread.
In all due fairness, you have been here for a long time, and i still would have no way to know i could trust you either. Your age on this forum is not a measure of honesty. For that matter, i have worked it out with the guys at VX miners to take the payments directly so i will not be collecting or holding any funds EVER for this group buy. So if you want to troll about something, troll about making payment direct to the manufacturers who are not a part of this forum at all mainly because they dont care about it as they only have 200 machines to unload.
Age on the forum may be no guarantee of trustworthiness, but it goes a long way if you can browse over several hundred posts from a person and get a measure of their history, participation in group buys, trust status etc. The fact that you are so defensive (calling me a troll - nobody ever has before) raises even more suspicion for me. This is a typical tactic for a scammer and I have seen it used many times on the forums.
I never said you were a scammer and for all I know you are a genuine honest person. My point was that given the lack of history available on your account, new users on here (or anyone for that matter) would be crazy to trust you with thousands of pounds/dollars/whatever your flavour.
I'm not up for a big debate on it, but I've seen lots of people just disappear and leave the buyers (quite often newbies) in the lurch.
To anyone considering giving this complete stranger your cash, think.
