The Mellotron Group

As far as I know..The first batch is sold out and there is a waiting list
for the next one.

Probably because it is clumsy and flawed, as a product and how it is
marketed.

Markus will always be second best to you guys...we all know that on this
list, so stop complaining.

You have the best product out there. Markus will never ever take a customer
from you. Probably never have.

What is the problem ?
