I have also prepaid for the OE and am anxiously awaiting it's arrival.
I believe that this is a new experience for Poul and he is in fact feeling his way throiugh, my guess is that in his enthusiasm to offer a topnotch product he is overextended, or atleast working on a razors edge.
There is little in his behavoir so far to suggest that he nothing but above board, responds to his email,post production images and seems genuinely interested in feedback.
I consider this a relatively minimal risk.
I ordered a Bill Yao Seafighter mod and paided him in full, is that a risk as well ?? some might suggest it is, but I feel very comfortable with it.
The Korsbek OE has the potential to be one of the great watch values.

1) I am not saying that Poul is not to be trusted. I cannot, and as I do not know him...I am speaking in general terms only regarding business in general and am not disparaging any individual
2) That said, and again in general terms, con-artists always give you a warm and fuzzy feeling. That's their job....look at all the people JS (aka Corona Gorda) took to the cleaners.
3) Your example of Bill Yao is a different story...he is well know in the WUS community as a craftsman and a man of integrity. Additionally, he has been in the "watch" business for years, and he has established his reputation as one who delivers by consistantly delivering on his commitments.!
