Here's the facts!! a few days prior to Christmas 2004 a "Skydiver" calls to purchase a new rig -- he says his Mom is buying it for him. He provides the Mom's name, c.c.#, phone # & address. A call was made to confirm the charge was ok with the Mom. Yes, more than one individual was involved in this. The amount is approved and the order shipped. Late Jan 2005 the full amount is deducted from the merchants account as this was an unauthorized charge. The card having been stolen. The gear is then reported stolen and was published in parachutist. If indeed Eric had checked s/n's he would have found his cypres 2 listed as stolen on SSK's list. It's an unfortunate situation but the bottom line is the dealer was not paid for the gear & it's become stolen equipment.
