Just poor business manners. And lack of business acumen.

Actually, they look forward to stealing your technology and advancing their business in a one-way relationship. Seven pages of products and not one original piece or idea in the whole pile. Amazing they even have a Ritter copy!

But if I ever want an Epifon, a Yamama, or an Olympic Elam, I bet I know who to call.

Agreed, very unprofessional. Industry news and business solicitations should be addressed directly to corporate executives, not splashed on a website forum.
(Unless this is Susan's announcement to us all that Alembic is the new North American distributor for yfmusical instruments, but I really doubt it).
Hey Dave, would you normally pull this type of posting, or just leave it up and let us have some fun with it? Just curious...........:-)

The important question, and the appropriate one for this thread:

Can this company make beer?

If they make beer, would it be labeled Butt Lite?

Wow..

ODD that they have thier own web address but still use a free Google email. Ironic to me that the "gmail.com" email suffix is the same as the idiot that keeps trying to sell my Spalted Maple MK on ebay! It's like an omen or something. DOO do doo do....

I prefer it when people make it known in an obvious way that I should avoid them.
Now, Oh-lee, I resent the idiot remark...

Dave - Val removed the originating post for this thread. It was odd to say the least.

Olie, not to worry I'm okay. Just goes to show you, inside jokes should probably stay that way and my apologies to you if you thought you had offened me. Your frustration is with the "idiot" understandable, just add me to the list. :-)
(although I can make you a great deal on the MK...wink, wink, nudge, nudge. Would curb feelers peak your interest?)
