ummm same here looks thin ask he to measure around the leg and better photo's of the drop outs
unstamped dropouts are around 2 to 3 mm thick pretty thin, might be lites

Looks like genuine ol' SE stuff as they have the american flag sticker on the headtube, you don't get it with the repro LG decals (http://www.radbmx.co.uk/forum/Smileys/smilies/wink.gif)
