This seems to be getting out of hand for no apparent reason. I see the advice as solid and to the point. I wouldn't have taken it as offensive because he's right. Yeah you can come here and ask around or do some online research but nothing will be as accurate as a hands on inspection by a true BMC retailer especially if you are paying $3,000 on Craigslist. Maybe you already bought it, found out it's a fake, and are lashing out?
