Bob,

I think you misread what Don wrote and  that is why you didn't find the
link.

I read Don's use of www.busheavens.com to be an example of what would be
in a sham email by an owner's email alias praising a company to a list
to drum up business.

He wrote:  "Some parts site owners also use a alias email address to
submit a sales pitch to the talk groups and they make it look like they
are happy customers. You all have read it before. It goes like this ~ I
just got my order from www.busheavens .com & Im so happy give them a try
for your parts."

Seems pretty clear to me.

Then in the next part he goes on to tell us about his credentials - of
which I know nothing good or bad as I haven't been into VW's and VW
shows like that.

Don't know him, but he was attacked as a probable sham earlier and was
writing an email to respond to that - giving us a phone number and his
experiences.

Now if the phone number doesn't work, that is another matter as it
wasn't part of a hypothetical example.  Or if people who were regulars
on the VW circuit during the years he described say they never heard of
him or in other ways can contradict his "history," that also would
reflect negatively.

Let's give the guy a fair shot here, reading what he wrote accurately.
