Stevan - I write based on what I have read via Campagnolo and US based US Consumer Protection Agency rulings for the day were stated as.

Before you go repremanding my auction - I'm sure you have way better things to do with your time then to write to me without 100% factual evidence to the contrary. Somehow I believe the legal writings on this subject and subsequent legal issues that Campy had to go through for the US government - has never crossed your desk at any point in your life - or I'm sure you would have stated such facts in your broad and tasteless email.

Please go bother someone else who can be bullied around with your bullshit and I'll write I what I have documented evidence about - pure and simple. I don't have time to educate you on something that I've summized down to a near soundbite of on info based on my 30+ years in the business, extensive knowledge of US trade issues with European importers, US Consumer Protection Agency document going over years of legal information, etc.

Please don't waste your important time either emailing me your "opinion" - nor please DO NOT bid, buy, insult, or even waste your time with any of my auctions.>>
