Yup, that is the e-mail I got as well.

Ask for his mailing address and we will send him a few "free samples"

What a Shame........ This whole thing "Stinks" !
These guys are slime.......The worst kind.......Pond Scum and then some !
I love Jeremy's point that if we disguise his website with *s...then we will prevent this eye opening information to come up for anybody searching the web and looking for a little guidance ! And we need to face the facts....95% + of the folks looking for an obtainable Handpan will have never heard of our forum.
Perhaps there are other public sites where we can post "Warnings" to educate people on the predatory and downright nasty business practices of these folks.
Slime

However, putting *'s in the names of him, his instruments, and subsidiaries will prevent someone from finding truthful information about his business practices.

This is very true!!!

The best way to stop this guy is to in fact use that name here with warnings!
If you do a Google search, you will notice we come up as #2

Good spot Spike ... if we change the name of that thread to 'BEWARE Comprablahblah' job done ...

[Spike]

Yeah, we must talk about it to get the hits...

Searches pick up on traffic, so we must keep the the name in there.

The good thing is Handpan.org gets a lot of bots because we have a lot to say

Good spot Spike ... if we change the name of that thread to 'BEWARE Comprablahblah' job done ...
