That is what I am seeing, but I think I will wait on Catterton to let me
know what it I for sure before I make a decision unless someone wants to
trade me a real Mifflin for it. LOL.

Stuart:
I ended up with a piece as well and I have been looking at pics on the IMCA
Encyclopedia and it looks like Chergach, an H5 that fell in 2007.

I have a piece of the Mifflin in question and I for one want to commend
Greg
for his handling of this. He has always been more than a fair dealer to
me.
I have bought several from him and nothing but professional. I am in no
hurry to get a refund. I would honestly like to know WHAT it is I got from
him as a Mifflin, then we can work something out. I only have a small
slice
so we are not talking about something that will break the bank. My natural
curiosity wants to know what it IS. The fact that this has been outted
does
not concern me that Greg will not make it right. I am willing to wait to
find out the mystery.

Hello,
Does, this mean you are not refunding customer's money now? It is clearly
not Mifflin and it seems further tests is just a delay. If I am wrong in
assuming this, then I apologize, but it would be best to buy these back
now
and get them to the trash can and out of collections.
Best Wishes
Michael Cottingham
