thoughts please!

Kelly, please don't get this, as something is really fishy!!!!
I bought a Diamond, 1-year ago, NO PROBLEMS,NO TROUBLE. I traded a Topaz 20 for this Diamond and I
really love it. Also a Diamond is $$$$$, so please go to a
dealer, check it out. Please.

What problems have you heard about the Diamond, just curious..:)
I have one and love it so far, only had it a couple weeks.

Craigslist has removed that [posting. Does that tell you something? This is the top of the line machine and retails for 7-8000.

Curious...did you buy the Diamond machine and if so, was it a good deal?

If it seems fishy or too good to be true, do a google search with the exact text from the ad. There are car ads I see that have low prices, but if you google the title of the ad (in quotes), you find dozens of copies with the same picture nationwide. They just want you to send them your money.

Also, I notice that with cars, the scams have a photo with no phone number and just an email address embedded in the photo.
