Dave, I really do not understand your tone with
me.... "Get a grip"? "Get over it"? What are you on
about? Of course I would stay away from ads like that. That was NOT the issue.
The issue was that this person was claiming
to sell a submarine that violiated Phil Nuytten's
rights, since as I understand it, Phil makes those subs and sells them
exclusively. The whole point of what I was telling Phil was how he might go
about getting law
enforcement to find and prosecute the guy. Your
analogy about the gold wing has nothing to do with what I was talking about. The
issue I was discussing was not about being naive or stupid in buying, it was
about
getting law enforcement to take action regarding a
fraud that affects Phil's products. Get a grip indeed on the proper subject
matter before you snap at someone.
Kindest Regards,
Bill Akins.

Smile. Hi Phil. It sounds like your mounties
are a bit like our sherriff deputies. But at least you can get them to make
a report so it is on record.
Then go over the mounties heads and seek
whatever canada has as a local prosecutor in your area. Call them, make
an appointment and take them
a copy of the report you made with the
mounties. Surely your country must have laws against fraud. I know we do in
the U.S.
If they want to find out from what computer
address this guy registered with e bay on that is not a problem. It can be
done by supeona of e bay records.
Here in the U.S. we make a police report (if in
the city) or a sherriff report (if in the county) and that can either be
turned in to the state attorney's office (local prosecutor)
by either the reporting officer (mountie) or by
the citizen directly filing with the state attorneys office. At that point
the state attorney (local prosecutor) decides whether a law has been broken
and if it is worth
their time to take action on it or not.
I understand your cynicism about apathetic,
unconcerned law enforcement. We have the same thing here. But you file your
report and then call and bug your prosecutor's office until
they do something. At least you can try.
Nothing to lose but some time. Question is....is it worth it to
you?
Kindest Regards,
Bill Akins.

Hi, Bill:
Thanks for your advice re State Attorney. Fact is, I dont have one
. .
.a State Attorney, that is. In fact, I don't even have a State! I
guess
I could go to the RCMP, though.. Canada's not big on litigation,
so the
Mounties may not take me seriously: " An' so, Mister New-teen,
you say dat
you build submarines, eh? An' some person want to sell you
a submarine what
you 'ave already own? But you say 'non' . . .so, den ,
what is it that you
wish us to do? Oh, get you a State Attorney . . .
Sacre Mon, but 'av
course! Dat is the dream of ev'ry Canadien . . .but,
infortune, the best we
can do is to offer a Provincial blackboard
monitor or, pr'haps, a a hockey
referee . . . Now, careful dat
dat door don' strike you on d'cul on d'way
out.
Phil
Nuytten
