While I was saddened to read of your hardships in life and your recent loss, I don't think that you should feel slighted by what was said here. This forum is a place where honest opinion and experience, as it relates to Leica, is spoken and while some of what was written was not in praise, it was honest appraisal by personal experiences people have had. My experience with you was not as pleasant as I would've liked and I don't mind telling you that directly, or through what I've written on the thread. When people ask for others experience, I'd hate to see an unspoken pressure not to be critical because that silence in itself adds up to a kind of lying. You can be, and should be, proud that you have so many fans, but that doesn't excuse some past history that wasn't so wonderful. I wasn't happy with the camera+lens I bought from you because it didn't live up to your description and even if I had sent it back, it would've been at the very least, a needless waste of my time to perform the exercise.
