Another Metters 12" there with no legs as well.

MAy not have legs..
Could still be a good black pot for use over a gas fire e.g. BBQ side burner.
If it was cheap enough of course.

I've sent him an email to challenge his statement.
Surely he doesn't believe it to be a Metters.

Within about an hour of him listing that pot I sent him a " NOT A METTERS" message to Aart. He should be starting to get the idea by now.
I havnt had a reply yet and I notice the listing hasnt been changed.

The latest offering on eBay for anyone who didn't notice, a Metters lid on a chinese pot. Starting off at $49.00, another case of buyer beware.

He is either a fool or a fraudster.

Derek, am I allowed to write that or am I stepping over the mark? Embarrassed

If I have, please remove the offending part.

Aart

I have also sent him a gentle message that the oven is not a metters. If there is no response by tomorrow morning, and a withdrawal of the auction, he will be reported.
Heck, I even sent him a link so he can see what a REAL metters looks like, even if it's legless.
Keep 'em honest I say....

My mother-in-law fell down a wishing well, I was amazed. I never knew they worked.

It's no longer on Ebay.
Haven't had a reply to my email..
Maybe he's not grateful for the sound advice that I offered him.

Did anybody else get feedback from the seller?

You'll notice the base shown in the latest listing is not the one he showed previously, what a conman !

When I die I hope my missus doesn't sell my camp ovens for what I told her I paid for them. pd
