He announced the first order of a Z/28, and then stood behind the assertion in several more posts. That is an amazing claim subject to amazing butt-busting if wrong. If I post something so earth shaking, I fully expect to have my balls publicly busted if wrong. You are not in school anymore, don't expect grading on a curve. Should I feel bad because he was gullible/lied to/naive? Wrong. It's a good life lesson. We've all had them and hopefully are better men because of the experiences.
Maybe he will come follow-up post and let us know what can be learned from this? |

Folks seem quick to criticize when online. You have to remember that you are not really having a "conversation" with a particular person on a forum. Conversations face to face usually vary dramatically from identical online chatter.

Ain't that the truth. Then again for the OPs sake he wouldn't have announced this in person. Everyone wants there 2secs of fame. Let the thread die as mentioned previously.

Orders for the ZL1 were opened 1 or 2 months before the prices were released, and many people ordered price unknown ... I was one of them
