Im merely trying to ascertain where you got your info from. If you're not prepared to explain your statement then at least retract it. This is a public forum, you have made a statement about me which you have no founding for, so the least you can do is explain yourself.
Also as for the quotes you sent me - the diffusion pump is cheaper than anything i can get here even with high postage costs. If the Aussie $ drops against yours its in my interest to hold off for a while. Right now its a bloody bargain!
Yes, the other items were not cost effective so no sale, but it was you who made first contact via this forum pushing your manifold connectors to me.

Do me a favour Mark, explain the comment please or retract it so i can get out of here. Neonteks chomping at the bit with glee i feel
