BRAND NEW LILIAN MILLING MACHINE MOTORCYCLE SWAP? Westport, ON

This is a strange post.... machine is new. Supposedly never used as shop floor will not take the weight. Shop floor looks to be wood beams... not sure what he means - is this upstairs in a two level barn / shop? Strange. Also he never ... though about the machine weight? Fishy.

He also says he wants to trade for something... 17500 ;)

People are funny.

I have a feeling its an R8 machine - but owner does not even say this...
 
For sure it sounds fishy, by the stained glass in the background looks like a church? But scammers aren't usually looking for trades especially vehicles you have to change ownership, weird.
We have a very similar machine at work and it is R8.
 
Something about the background in that photo rings a bell. I swear I saw an ad for a smaller mill for sale a while back in that same shop…
