Dave, I hope you can produce proof of what you write:

1) That the message you posted actually exists.
2) That more than one message exists.
3) Somerset's Kevlar is ONLY available in triradial so it seems
unlikely that your message is real.

Your ISP has been alerted about this, thought not by me. You're
attempting to hurt people who having nothing to do with ASA, do you
realize this?

Seems like b.s. to me. Why not just say what this majick loft is.

Bobby gets a kickback ( in the form of free sails) from this outfit on
the
customers he sends them. If he posted the name he wouldn't get proper
"credit" for any resulting sales.


Even if this is true, why should it matter? If the loft beats other's
prices
and matches their work, is it any skin off anyone's nose if Bobby gets
freebies for hooking folks up? Much ado about nothing, to my mind.


Hey, I'm just answering the guy's question. You wanna take advice from a
guy
who gets a kickback for steering you to this vendor, by all means do. No
skin off my teeth. I would, however, recommend a little independent due
diligence.


No thanks. I'm quite happy with North Sails. I'm just sayin'.

Okay....four folks asked for quotes. Two had blocked addresses. One I

when I reply. Any ideas?




Dan, here's a quote....somewhat vague, but you can work that out with
the loft directly.

125% genoa Cruise Radial sail = 480.00

You can also get a full tri-radial or a kevlar, which is ONLY available
in Triradial.

Oh, and here's a real comment from a customer:

Comment: "After considering all of the sailmakers above and several
not listed, I purchased my new mainsail from Martin at Somerset Sails
in Barker, NY. The price was very competitive and the quality the best
I have seen." Max Lent (New 8/06)

And the link for it:
http://www.freedom21.info/sails.htm

FYI, if you feel that you must have a major loft I also can get a
discount from Doyle, but it will still be more expensive. They also
make great sails of course.

You're trolling and not earning any points. I offered to quote you for
sails and honestly report on the pricing.
I see you have no answer for that.
You can also contact the loft directly and see for yourself.
I guess you'll have no answer to that either.


You expect an instantaneous answer, Bobby? This isn't a conference call.
It's Usenet. Generally you oughta wait at least a couple of hours or a day
before complaining about not getting an answer.

Actually, by the time you posted this (which must have be what, 5 minutes
after my previous post) I had provided some additional information about
your paymaster on one of the other groups you're spamming on the topic.
You'll see the same information in another post here.

I really have no problem with your recommending this outfit despite what
its
customers say, but please be up front about your financial interest in the
deal, rather than posing as simply disinterested and magnanimous.


You're asking a lot of him...

Truth is an absolute defense, Bobby. You think you've got a lawsuit,
put
your money where your mouth is.

I have no interest in a lawsuit, but I sent the info to both lofts.


BTW, as to my ISP, you don't even know who it is, so cut out the BS.
That's
one of the advantages of using a premium news service rather than AOL
and
Google.


Google has it's own abuse center and you shouldn't underestimate them.
You HAVE been reported. I don't know anything else about it.

Nice try, Boobsie, but I've got no connection to Google.




You don't get it. I have nothing to do with reporting you, finding you
or anything else. If you're some kind of ghost who chases people around
and writes phoney reviews, fine.
Neither loft makes a Kevlar main that is not triradial, Dave. That was
the first silly thing you wrote. Why not google cross cut kevlar. You
won't get much. Or better yet, try to order a cross cut kevlar!
Like I said, knock yourself out. I have a feeling people can see what
you're trying to do. Actually, judging by the amount of people who
asked for quotes since last night maybe you're helping. Just don't go
asking for any kickbacks. Go find your own.
Gotto go...my new lazy jack set just came via UPS!

Hey, whom are they a kickback from?

Or did you actually buy them.



The loft threw them in with those used sails I bought. They retail for
250.00.
Gotta run....there may be a new boat in my future.

Give it a rest, folks. You should know this:
1) No good deed goes unpunished.
2) There is no kindness too great to avoid being sneering at.
