Wow! That is a big accusation to be making in such a public forum. Do you have anything to back that up or are the RR guys going to see this thread and bring a lawsuit? Understand that I don't work for them...just have the snorkel but I'd be careful putting that kind of stuff into writing. Also, no matter what you think of a vendor on the forum, I can assure you that a nameless Chinese fabricator will have to do a lot to gain my confidence...look what Chinese manufacturing did with dog food, baby forumla and drywall just to name a few!

So where did you order your Chinese version from and how much did it cost you? If you don't mind me asking?
