You should be able to work out the PZ#number from the VIN

Thanks Warpcoil!

I'm #529. Like a backwards Dolly Parton.

EDIT : Nope, I'm #530, can't read my VIN correctly.

Most of you guys don't get to see much spam on the forum these days, as the moderators are working hard behind the scenes to weed-out the spammers before they even get started, anything from 2-20 per week.

One of the give-aways is impossible combinations of models/editions and colours.
e.g. a Kuro in anything other than black sets the alarm bells ringing.

    There was a while before the vin number page existed where people were just claiming a preferred & untaken number out of the list

    Prior to the VIN-check process, some people just filled-in the gaps, taking the next unclaimed number in the sequence.
