Minion, you may have read the thread but not thoroughly understood it. The link is part of the discovery made by Jim after purchasing a "Generic' mic. A mic that was not advertised as "Look, I bought a kit & assembled the parts & now I want to sell the result..." but I assumed was offered as "for sale generic tube condenser mic...".
Inadvertantly buying an assembled kit as something else would give me pause as well.
If "...Bloke has me money..." causes you to assume all sorts of things about one's heritage, travel, residency status and country of origin then you'd best write off most of Australia as being immigrant, (well, essentially give or take an generation or three we actually are). It's interesting, though distressing, to see grammar being used, yet again incorrectly, as a weapon. Pots & Kettles do come to mind as well.
Since when has slipping in an idiom, idiosyncracy or colloquialism been a sign of poor grammar?
Do you usually become aggressively xenophobic when you've been found to have erred?
