Looks like a chuck, maybe a faceplate and steadyrest on the ground.
Seems like a smoking deal.
The thing is, that looks like the older style 1440 which has D1-4 camlock spindle but the faceplate on the floor looks like D1-6.

The seller is not responsive so far as well.

I have a feeling this could be a scam in some way and shape. Notice 1 picture, and notice picture bar under that picture - so a picture of a picture?

I would be very careful - certainly no etransfer without actually touching physical lathe.

yep it is a warning sign all right. Especially since google can't find that image on the web which means it is likely older. If the lathe was on facebook and kijiji google would find it.

I haven't gotten a reply either. also a sign
