Mark,

Although unsatisfied with the responses to my posting
I had decided to leave it until yours.

Let me make a few things clear:

I do not use any anti spam software and therefore screen
all e-mails myself. The problem is increasing in the
UK but is not desperate yet. Although when people post
your actual e-mail address in a reply it may well get
worse (thanks Richard).

“Using return receipts are part of the solution, although
it's easy to turn these off in the receiving email
client.”
This is no solution whatsoever.

“I suspect you're miffed about not being able to buy
the LNAV, but to be fair it's not as though you had
sent money and were waiting for the goods.. In my
view it's perhaps a little bit of an over-reaction
to post here... ? especially since Richard has pointed
out that it was your mail provider bouncing his replies
to you...”

Too right. It was on the web site for sale. However
as I said in the first posting:
“Fair enough, admit it was already sold and the web
site was out of date. I would live with that. But don't
just change the site and not reply to the e-mail.”
I might add that Richard isn’t afraid of using this
forum to advertise his products and should therefore
live with the criticisms. I fully support the few people
who put so much effort into our sport ands welcome
the odd advert to let us know what is out there.

Re my e-mail provider bouncing messages:
If it does happen then I am not aware of it with my
ISP. I have always received e-mails (however unpalatable).
I run a gliding newsgroup and get e-mails from all
over the world and have NEVER had anyone say their
e-mails had not got through.

I have purchased two similar vario’s from the USA one
from Tim Mara at Wings and Wheels and one privately.
Both have been exceptional, communicative and fair
in their dealings.

I am sure that Richard will have lots of satisfied
customers who will spring to his defence. But in this
case his response served only to ensure I wouldn’t
make the effort again.

Regards

Andy
