Disgraceful behaviour this, as is the fact this matter is still not resolved. I can't stand folk who hide, rip folk off and don't honour their commitments - no matter their personal circumstances there is NO excuse for it!!
I wish you all the best, Brian, in obtaining what is legally yours and getting Vantage Audio to cough up accordingly. If I can help in any way in hunting down these dishonest, morally bereft scumbags, please let me know.
Marco.
