There some gems in there, the evidence was there but for some reason people ignored it. I can understand if he just started the scheme a couple months ago but to drag on a jacket build for 2+ years is just unreal:
I thought you might like it! This comment really stuck out.

"He put himself in the middle, he is not part of Aero, he is a completely separate distributor affiliated with Aero as a reseller. He is basically the same as a beer distributor, that is affiliated with the beer company, but simply distributes to the public. The difference in this case is that the public can go directly to the manufacturer. … I wouldn't go around feeling sorry for him though. He chose to leverage his company as a reseller for a business that specializes in custom orders and dealing direct with the end user."
So, the fact that this was not Aero, but an unrelated affiliate/distributor was well known, and so Aero's current stance - that they are not responsible and could not have known what was going on - is perfectly reasonable, unlike what has been suggested earlier in this thread.
That thread also brings up an interesting suggestion. It seems that people thought Aero USA basically wasn't making any money.

"If you check Mark's prices on his website, you'll find that he charges the same as the factory (allowing for currency exchange, of course)"
Like this chap was somehow in business for the good of the customers. A company of almost mythical proportions around here … [huh]
