Transcript
A fictional buyer asks which exact machine is being offered. The reply supplies enthusiasm. The serial number remains on holiday.
Some information may require a sensible private exchange. Ask how the unit's identity and documentation can be established.
A brochure for the model is not proof of the actual machine being sold. The unit's identity and installed options still matter.
Unanswered does not automatically mean dishonest. It means unanswered. Do not quietly promote that into verified.
