I started to reply to an earlier post but stopped.  I guess now though, I really should at least mention some points.  Talimonti is a member of the PCS.  He is also a corporate sponsor.  Therefore he has access to our members list.  This subject has been brought up on our PCS Chat site.  It appears that some(?) of us were not informed enough and that all is ok.  Nothing improper appears to be at hand, though some of us are in the dark. ;-)

JP,
 
I think the term Talamonti used in the article was "authorized dealers." Now, the "authorized" part I can understand...since this guy would surely authorize any PCS member to use his equipment. But the "dealer" term is something quite different. There is a general understanding that a dealer already has the equipment to do the work and an understanding of how to do the work. If I were a PCS member and was listed incorrectly as one of Talamonti's dealers, I think I'd have him remove my name. Can't believe anyone would have the guts to just pick up a thousand names and use them with no permission, so wonder if the PCS hierarchy secretly sold him the list...Al? The secretiveness of technique and now the phony dealer list really blows a hole in this company's credibility.
 
Alan's WalMart-Target location marketing "theory" just might have some merit, given Talamonti's past with SST.

Well I'll be damned.  I'm a dealer too!
Who was in my class?
I just don't seem to remember anyone.  It is the faces i have trouble with, & the Aholes I remember.  Funny thing is I don't remember meeting this ahole or getting certified.

All,

Apparently, Phil must have gotten his hands on the PCS membership list, as
several of the guys on Shoptalk (who are PCS members) are listed as
"certified dealers" for his shaft matching technology, yet most or all of
them have never even met the guy.  How unethical is that!!!
