I believe he bought the name and the rights years ago just like the company in India that bought the name and rights to the HMV's that we call crapophones. That is why he has made this claim and I guess it does make him the successor. . In a message dated 9/24/2008 9:10:05 P.M. Eastern Daylight Time, john9ten at pacbell.net writes:
Sounds like a shady guy. The one thing I never liked about his business is that he claimed to be successor to the original Edison Phonograph Works...to me that is just plain dishonest. --- On Wed, 9/24/08, John Pisano <jpisano at cox.net> wrote: From: John Pisano <[email protected]> Subject: [Phono-L] Borri Cylinders... To: phono-l at oldcrank.org Date: Wednesday, September 24, 2008, 2:49 PM I met Shawn Borri at the MME show in New Jersey a few years back. I traded him and his partner a shaving machine in exchange for eight cylinders. I received two cylinders at the show and he was going to make the rest when he got home. I gave him the shaver at the show. This was several years ago. I never did receive the cylinders. I have e-mailed him several times since and he has e-mailed me back stating he would send the cylinders as recently as a year ago. I have never received them and have since given up. Obviously I would not do business with him again. _______________________________________________ Phono-L mailing list http://phono-l.oldcrank.org _______________________________________________ Phono-L mailing list http://phono-l.oldcrank.org **************Looking for simple solutions to your real-life financial challenges?
