I have no idea... I am not into modern Yixing, so not really in a position to judge. But it seems a bit over the top and some claims he just deleted after facing some headwinds. More like pushing up his own sales tactics I guess.Thundercleese wrote: ↑Wed Sep 27, 2023 9:30 pmDo you think that's a cover for selling it, or is there any veracity to his claims?

Facts. It seems to be a marketing strategy to me. Conflict grabs attention. Of course I couldn't speculate on whether his Zisha claims are legit or not, but the stuff that his site displays seems a little... ornamental to me.
This was from them, operating out of Singapore: viewtopic.php?f=19&t=2527
I am not yet sure about the nature of that defect, as per that thread.
They have fast and friendly communication and the return process was without friction, however, I also noticed that they removed the listing while I was in the process of complaining/returning it (to protect themselves from a bad review?), and I saw that they put it back up for sale right away after I had returned it (not caring that someone else gets a defective pot?).
