Sorry, John but it seems you don’t have the full facts. He was initially a victim of fake flash and did try to warn people at first. Then it seems he turned to the dark side and started selling fakes. The person running this blog is trustworthy and honest. Facts are thoroughly checked. If there are confirmed test results for a seller it means they did sell fake drives.

That’s right. In fact numberous email been send to the seller warning him at first about his listing. No word came back from the seller. And from the look, the seller took the dark path of greed and start selling fakes.
Frank is right, the webmaster is trustworthy and only put anything up which have proof.
