I will contact The Insurance Center tomorrow and see what my (...) (23 years ago, 13-Dec-01, to lugnet.market.appraisal)

Whilst I appreciate your situation, indeed the seller seems to have been remiss, I might read this as meaning that you HAVE had dealings with an a "non-overseas" i.e. local, "seller who is so irresponsible" ?
