Hi Folks,
Here is the deal.... i am thinking about purchasing a gen 390 second hand. In order not to pay a considerable sum of hard earned cash and end up with a H Fac rep I was hoping you good folks could point out how to spot any tells?
Obviously if i can get it opened up I hope I would be able to recognise from the movement but assuming I cant whats the best way to determine if its a rep?
It has papers but i know these can be rep'd as well...
Not sure if we have had a side by side but if i get it I promise to do one!
So far to check i have:
- ensure serial number tallies with the ones on the paper work
- check it matches to tags and box
what am i missing?!
Cheers.
