As I tried to make clear, it was hearsay--one source, placed
purely on the European side, albeit not merely "some European
operator," because he had an inordinate interest in the mechanics
of proxy buying and factoring, what we do, the secondary market
markup, inventory control, and various other issues related to
the business end that I just can't see some phone drone caring
about, can you?
Perhaps his own information was incorrect, but he conveyed a
great sense of certainty about it, i.e., that he wasn't lying
to me.

I quite believe he was conveying his best information, truthfully.
Now whether or not that information *is actually true* is another
matter altogether. Take it with a grain of salt, but you might
be surprised at how much the S@H divisions know about one another.
I've had a few interesting conversations with Enfield staff on
that score--but again, truth is only determined from inside the
Castle. :)
