Hiya,

Please, please tell me that this was not posted to Wire because Danny
threatend legal action.

He may not have ripped off every store in Adelaide, but he certainly
ripped of a large number of U2 fans, by not supplying goods that he was
paid for. The bloke is a theif, a fraud, and a liar, and is he thinks such
a description is defamation, he thinks much too highly of himself.

Although you might disregard Cathy's statement, it would be pretty hard to
disregard the tens, if not hundreds of posts from other Wirelings that
have been ripped off by Danny Best, and have never seen the products they
have paid for.

Have A Nice Day,
