I guess thats how he started out, to have the canadian guy as a middle man.
But since there were several posts on this list about bad  experiences with
his business,  I inquired last week  about the nature of his canadian
business, and we emailed back and forth for a while, and he explained the
situation.
so, now its two businesses, anbd he has nothing to do with the canadian part
any more. I have to say though that groschi seems to be a very nice person
that I would deal with anytime.
