Oh, and by the way, we REALLY need to stop posting questions about these email only vendors in the "Who Offers It" section and other open areas of the board. This question belongs in the "Email Only" section, which I realize requires a minimum number of posts to access, but that restriction is in place for a reason. By placing it here, this con artist now has a Google indexed thread with his email front and center, along with a number of post tags, which further enhances its position in the search engines. Worst of all is the fact that in cases like this, where the source being asked about turns out to be a known scammer, it puts all future new members at risk of being taken when they decide to take a chance on ordering from them out of desperation or a host of other possible reasons.
Going forward, there needs to be a concerted effort made to immediately report newly created threads like this to admin so they can be deleted if the creator of the thread doesn't have the required post count to access the email only area. I realize that this error may well have been unintentional, but in the future PLEASE don't post this type of question anywhere other than the appropriate location. And if you lack the posts necessary to access the appropriate area, then either PM a senior member or admin and ask that they post the question in the appropriate area. If you're simply trying to verify a source to protect yourself from scammers, any number of us would be glad to help you, so there's no reason to clutter up the board with potentially risky, incorrectly categorized threads such as this.
