[QUOTE="UnconTROLLed, post: 873734, member: 18708"] Unlike all of the biased, useless articles being posted ....here is the meat and potatos "As for last week's raid, the government said it had evidence that Indian ebony was "fraudulently" labeled in an attempt to evade an Indian ban on exports of unfinished wood. [b]"It is very possible that a broker made the mistake in filling out a form,"[/b] Mr. Juszkiewicz said. Gibson says the ebony was partially finished for use as fingerboards and that Indian officials have endorsed such exports as legal. A spokesman for India's commerce ministry had no immediate comment." [URL]http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424053111903895904576542942027859286.html[/URL] Wait a sec...everyone is getting riled up about too much gov't and etc...but why is it that Juszkiewicz is backtracking and claiming a "mistake' may have happened? why are they in a civil court trying to take back claimed goods now, is the product [I]that[/I] valuable or is Gibson simply trying to weaken the case against them? Seems shady to me despite the slanted efforts of social media. Maybe Gibson should do as others have claimed and use a little more due dilligance and research into their goods/ exports purchased.
