Folks,

I saw this topic now includes Idiom Press 
and am compelled to add  to the 
discussion. I'll keep it short.

Idiom Press was a set of words that made 
my blood boil. I had sent them money, a 
small amount of cash for a rotor LED 
illuminator. I had sent cash because I 
have only been burned once by a Ham sale 
and all other Ham transactions have been 
of integrity. They acknowledged receipt 
and never sent a thing, later after 
sending them a letter so far beneath me, I 
got a reply from one of the two original 
owners who said they were reorganizing and 
would send it to me. It never came and I 
left a scathing review on one of the forum 
reviews and I wrote off the money as 
theft.

Please keep reading.

Several years later I received an email 
from a ham saying he had bought Idiom 
Press and read my review. He had nothing 
to do with Idiom at that earlier time but 
wanted to make good as it now was his 
integrity that would be affected by the 
previous owner's mistakes. He wanted proof 
I had sent to them and he would send the 
part to me ASAP. Having sent cash I had 
nothing, I informed him of that and he 
accepted that as my word. He sent me the 
illuminator immediately and this at a loss 
to him personally.

I mention this for any who heard of the 
horrible way Idiom used to be,they are now 
a company I am completely in appreciation 
of. The new owner is a genuine Ham with a 
genuine work ethic. Anything I need that 
they sell, I will happily buy from them. 
They are not what they were.

Hope  that wasn't too long.
