Counterfeit TRC alert
« on: July 29, 2008, 01:27:18 PM »
This TRC is from the same seller (Rita Iacoangeli) in Italy that sold me a TRC that turned out to be fake. Don't buy anything from her.

I reported this to eBay.

I'm surprised that JH hasn't gone after him her through eBay.

I'm willing to send JH the fake TRC that Rita sold me, as a proof.

Good work, Ilan. And good for them. Even if it were permissible in Italy to make a copy, this is selling a copy as an original. It's outright fraud.

[Insert old joke here]

"Dad, we had a spelling contest in school today, and I missed on the very first word."

"That's too bad, Son. What was the word ?"

"Posse."

"Hell, no wonder you can't spell it . . . you can't even pronounce it!"
