A caution to all who don't know about this yet but there has been many people and companies in this industry that have been taken advantage of by criminals posing as fellow technitions from other countries. Often they contact you or your company to send them either some new or used gear, than offer a credit card or what ever to make the payment. Unless they are a well established company, do not trust them or sell them gear. They will get the gear from you, than either the credit card will be stolen or be rejected too late and you are very much out your gear.
I was personally was just contacted by one of them about some Mac 600 fixtures. Don't know where this person got my name but I don't sell stuff in my off time, much less on the internet or when I can help it. I thus never offered any such thing. If advice was given to him about something such as lamps, no sale was intended. Still this person I probably gave advice to contacted me directly to purchase some Mac 600s from - no doubt used fixtures from us. Fine we have a few hundred but don't do business on the internet nor due to well expressed warnings - with people overseas without the laws to protect us. Do not do business with people overseas especially from those you don't know, those from less civilized countries with similar laws, and those other than in the extreme from companies that are intronationally and ESTA recognized. You will have your gear stolen in the end no matter if it's a Leko or moving light. Moving lights and desks are a big theft market nowadays.

his return address is [email protected]. Sorry if the guy is an honest brother tech person but it just sounds too fishy for me to take part in. If it sounds fishy, avoid it.
