First off, let me start by saying except for this list and a few emails,
I have never met Peter. I am not a French Canadian landsman of his or
anything like that. I just think that I have a pretty good idea where he
is coming from.
At times Peter may seem a little over enthusiastic and maybe even a
little pushy. But I believe that this stems from is sincere love for MD
and desire to make every effort to save people money.
Kheops Mini Disc is not something that Peter is depending on to make a
living. He is part of the Kheops Art Glass company. I have kept my
mouth quiet for a long time, but I have had some very negative
experiences with Mini Pisco.
Even though I have a great deal of respect for Eric Woudenberg, I was
very upset when he put their banner on the community page. I am really
holding back here. I'm simply going to leave it by saying Mini Disco and
I don't dance.
Peter may over do it a little. But when someone post an e mail stating
that Mini Pisco has the lowest price on such and such, and it just isn't
a fact, I think that someone has a duty to correct them. And also to
tell us were we can get a better deal.
If Peter had the connections in Japan, I think that his company would
have all of the best features of Nic Boyde (SP?), and MiniDisc NOW! with
none of the negatives.
If the distributors that MDN had would start their own website, you would
see the largest selection and lowest prices ever. Plus they stand behind
what they sell.
Unfortunately the main distributor is a very large, very Japanese
company. Although the sales manager in the MD department is receptive,
the owners are not interested in expanding to do business with the West.
They are old school Japan. They make large sums of money selling in
their own country and that's the way they are happy. It's our loss. But
there is nothing we can do. Getting Sawada Denki to set up a web site
was a big deal and a feather in Rick's cap.
