Carl,
In case 1; suffice to say the seller has a long and documented history
of this sort of behavior, which I discovered only after the order was
placed... There are several court cases pending I am told, I have no
idea if this is true, but it is what has been said.... In this case you
should have collected more information before you pronounced a
verdict... Hence communications IS important! It keeps exactly this
sort of mis-understanding from happening...
Also suffice to say, you are off on the wrong track again-- in case 2,
however it is not worth my time to try and convince you of anything
other than what you already believe. I can see that an actual
discussion is not possible with you, as you have already made up your
mind about everything.
So we can either agree to disagree, or you can continue typing to a non
answering thread...
Hope all goes well for you and good DX to you!
--
73's and Thanks,
Dave
