Hello! Thanks, David, for adding me.
I am grateful to the FP community here and elsewhere for having posted about Brandon Cifani. Do.char's questions and behavior tripped my intuition from the very beginning, so I felt vindicated when Google showed me the threads in three fp forums.
I hadn't joined this forum, as the focus is more on vintage pens and serious, technical discussions (this was my impression),
The thread in (at?) fpn is still there. Wim even suggested a way to contact eBay from Poland. Here's the link: Brandon Is Back, which was begun a year ago September.
I haven't checked eBay today yet (I explained to Brandon that his reputation was well-known in the fp community, so he must surely understand why I would not do business with him).
Anyway, my thanks to all who posted about this guy. You saved me some frustration and anger, I'm sure.
