Yes he did and he still doesn't believe it.

Is the back stamp "SUPERIOR QUAILITY" a company name as he claims or is it the marking of waterbury co.? He says that it is different from the waterbury co because his says superior quality on the back!

Thanks Buckram! I emailed him a copy of your last post.You know its hard to tell a friend that he may have been duped by someone!
