Sorry if it sounds hard line, but this offer is designed for our original clients - people who supported us by sending money to a new company for an unproven product. I think the fact that we are allowing anyone else at all to take advantage of it is a pretty good gesture, and is something that we probably wouldn't have done if it wasn't for the second-hand owners that have become such an important part of the community on this BBS.

There isn't any issue with "proof of purchase" here - we know who our original clients were and those are the people that the offer is intended for. I have always stated that the offer will only be passed to second-hand empeg owners with the express permission of the original purchaser, and I think that's a reasonable policy.

Regards

Rob
