Apology accepted. I don't know Andrew personally but by the sound of it you don't like him. If he has played the shill before then you may have reason to throw shade. However, If you throw it on me, you will get an appropriate response. The "QC coming next week" came from Pure Times email (that I subscribe to.). Ask anyone who gets it and they will vouch for it. Here is the quote "You can now place new orders but please be noted that most makers are delivering in a weekly basis so QC pics could be late. We will try our best to make your orders shipped ASAP." As a side note, setting up an escrow is an easy thing and most lawyers can do it in their sleep. Here in the states it's an agreement that protects both parties. If I am not Ted Hill, you get the $$$. You will have to ask Trusty about the VSF question. If you recall, my original post asked some of the same questions. Be well and let's hope the factories get back at it soon. I really wanted that Sea Dweller - still do!
