It belongs to Rory, a former Club member. You can see it detailed in his FTC thread here:

Rory kind of announced he was leaving the Club, but I think he left some messages recently.

I think Rory was frustrated at some of the click mentality as he viewed it that occurs from time to time.  He had strong and valid opinions, and to me was a great resource for information.  Having purchased a Mark King from him, I can vouch for his credibility. I have a feeling he will be back, perhaps he had a burnout like us audiophiles do from time to time, after all, how much minuetia is there to pontificate about?

I exchanged emails with Rory when he wa selling a MK, perhaps yours,  Steve. Rory is a great guy and I hope the best for him. Im sure his 6 string is everything, and more, that he says it is...

It gets even worse with the scammers.  I received a bogus second chance offer on an item that I legitimately won!  You would think they would be smart enough not to try that.  I alerted e-bay, as Ido for all ofthese scam oofers, but I'm not sure they are really doing all they can at this time.
