Similar story. I collect Soviet electronic calculators ( plug:
http://www.comcen.com.au/~adavie/slide/calculator/soviet.html ) and wrote to
them asking if they had any. Of course they do. More to the point, I asked
about specific models which are currently unknown but for magazine pictures
(VEGA, for example). They replied that not only could they find these for
me, but "in any quantity". That makes me incredibly suspicious! My gut
feeling is to be extremely cautious, but haven't decided it's a scam right
yet.
"We not only think, but we sure what can to acquire for you any from these
calculators in the any quantity. "
A side-note, a friend in Russia (one of my suppliers, so to speak) goes
through me as an intermediary for his sales due to his fear of the Russian
Mafia taking notice. I kid you not. I've had quite extensive experience
getting things out of Russia and will be happy to offer advice to any trying
to do the same. I can definitely obtain Russian computers - from reliable
sources - the only problem is the cost of getting them out!
