from the thread on thesamba(posted by me):
our buddy Chris(halatos) is a liar...he stated he was unhappy with the parts he got from you, John, and had to send them back, blah, blah....the post containing it was removed due to his inability to remain on topic(typical of him over the years) and while i realize its a bit hypocritical of me to point that out as i am also posting off topic, i don't really care...yep...don't care.....Chris/halatos is a liar....he has bought parts from mario and had good experiences...that's great...but he forgot to mention his dissatisfaction with you, John, in the last go'round about you and mario... Quote: John,
With all due respect, I have purchased parts from Mario and am in process of buying more used parts from him; so far I have not had any trouble.
Same goes for you, as far as new parts go I always check with you first because I know I'll get the best. My entire super beetle front end and rear suspension was rebuilt with parts I got from you. But sometimes you have to go used for parts, and thus it's necessary to utilize whatever sources may be available.
i don't see even a hint of dissatisfaction with your products and services in the above quote, which is quite the opposite from what he posted here last evening(removed)....(for verification of quote

Mr. Chris/Hal/Halatos2000/halotos@gmail has changed his mind, position, and posting handle many times over the years and can't seem to keep from his hypocritical ways...he has said that i change my names to avoid filters, and yet i have posted from only three screen names in the past ten years....he is up to four or five.... he is unreliable, an admitted troll on Ramva(his own words), and an incessant whiner.... he is typical of they kind of freak that crawls out of the woodwork to just be an ass.... his accuisations of me being vulgar/etc are pretty close...but at least i'm consistant.... Chris/hal/halatos2000/halatos@gmail, please do, f*ck off...
