Not really, Is exactly the same as to say that you are anonymous for me, which is nothing strange if you are from Finland ;-)
The ad sas that the guy got it as a present over a year ago but as he has no idea about skydiving is selling it.

I think Ptah just highlighted the possible issue with likely stolen (somewhere) gear on auction.

Both of us (Ptah and me are from Poland where the ad is announced)

Back to Poland... back home.

Polish police detained a 28year old who was selling a parachute on the internet that has been reported stolen 2 years ago from Austria.

I believe that's pretty close to what it says

Ok, nice translation

Yesterday Police from Wabrzezin arrested 28 years old Wabrzezin's inhabitant, who placed on one of the popular internet auctions a parachute for sale. There wouldn't be anything strange in it, however the parachute (system) was stolen two years ago from a hangar in Austria. The Police was informed about the auction by some skydiver who was initially interested in the offer. However the skydiver checked the origin of the parachute system. While it became clear that the parachute was stolen and the seller lives in Wabrzezin, he immediately informed the Police. He made already an appointment with the seller in order to inspect the system. He came on the meeting with Police who arrested the seller and kept the parachute (for evidence). The seller heard an objection of "fencing"(?) (selling stolen goods). Who has stolen the parachute will be explained during the investigation.
Sorry, but I'm not a perfect English speaker.

I hope the owner will get the rig back before they solve the case...
