Did you receive snap-shots of the wheel you were expecting to purchase?
It's a long story which includes what "appeared" to be repeated attempts to post photos that "wouldn't upload". I appreciate the advice, and normally I take all of these precautions. The point I wanted to make is - don't let your guard down just because you're posting on the Registry, and don't let your pursuit of a hard-to-find part make you any less vigilant than if you're looking for something easier to find.
