Dave,
While your note wasn't addressed to me, since it concerns me I thought I would respond.
I apologize for the tone of the post, but not the content. I think if a Masi frame is stamped with a city code for Verona (V) and the invoice states that it was built in Milan, then the invoice is in error otherwise the frame would be stamped with the city code for Milan (M).
It does not make sense to think otherwise, does it?
Regards,
