: Could I just point out that the two R class
: ships I recently put up for sale on ebay
: were bought as part of a collection of
: cruise ships from a very reputable collector
: here in the UK. I have not advertised them
: as being 'new' and I have no reason to
: beleive that the models are in any way
: copies of the original. As for the ships
: boats, I have described what I can see and
: bearing in mind the model was produced
: around three years ago it is quite
: conceivable that one of the boats could have
: come off in the meantime. Their original
: origin is of course unknown to me but I
: can't imagine these being copied by someone
: else, if it was it was done at least some
: years ago as I visited this collector to
: purchase some warships over 18 months ago
: and the model was on his shelf then. Every
: model I sell I of course verify the maker,
: this one has JE9 cast underneath it which
: makes it an Eagan model as far as I am aware
: and I have listed it as such. I take great
: exception to the implication that I would
: pass off 'counterfeit models' as originals

: At the present time Martin Brown is selling

: ships on eBay. He states that these models
: have misaligned lifeboats with one missing
: and were manufactured by me. I would like
: everybody to know that I built the master
: for this ship but MONTFORD MANUFACTURING
: cast them and those flaws were rejected by
: me before the original casting was supposed
: to be done. THEY DO NOT REPRESENT MY WORK
: !!! I do not blame MB for this mixup I have
: always found him to be an honest and
: reputable person however MONTFORD had no
: right to sell this junk with my name on it.
: Please be advised that I would never allow
: work like this to carry my name. I am deeply
: offended that my name has been used without
