    Well done Angie, 10 points!


    Because the advert is so sparse you can't conclude what is wrong, might be like the one I bought where it was just messed up and needed a full strip and re-start.

    He should pay the forum £10 and break it on here, bigger audiance.

    FWIW, it could just be an underhanded way to determine interest in either route (break or sell). Maybe if someone made him an offer at the right sort of level he'd sell as a whole?
