I thought I seen much things in my life (I am an old guy), but every time new stuff happens!
I am Brazilian DIY forum administrator - handmades.com.br. We are a big community, not so big than FSF, but we are growing every day.
There, we start to talk about
http://www.ampclones.com business. This company sells PCB boards clones (made in Russia) to some famous American amplifiers as Soldano and Mesa Boogie.
A fellow of mine, member of handmades.com.br, suggested to group buy one of PCB boards traded by ampclones.com and display it, with all documentation, to our community and, if possible, clone it.
My fellow tried to buy the SLO board and he got this message:
Mr. Bello,
we would like to draw your attention to the statement located here, at our webpage:
http://www.ampclones.com/index.php?main ... ippinginfo
Especially to this specific part of it:
“We can ship to virtually any address in the world, however we reserve the right to refuse to process any order or to refuse to ship to certain countries.”
In your case, this may become the reason:

Yes, we can read. And we honestly do not understand your attitude. This is serious business for us, we’re helping people all over the world with their DIY projects, we help them to get sound and tone of amplifiers that cost THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS paying small fraction of the price. Actions like yours will prevent us of doing our job and offer new amplifier kits in the future, is that what you are aiming at? Do you really want to spend around 7000 euros for a slo100 in Brazil?
Your order is packed and sent to the courier, but it will leave the customs on 12th of May because of the national holidays in our country.
And yes, we respect your request and we’ve under declared the parcel (Hi friends. Can you put in the declaration: " Amplifier parts total US$45"? Tanks. ), as you asked, friend.
We will protect our business and huge effort we put into it, no matter the cost, even if this means not to sell to Brazil anymore. We can live with that.
We wish you good day,
Sincerely,
ampclones.com staff.
I can understand this people getting upset with my fellows attitude. As they are doing profits with other people works (Soldano, Mesa, etc), they are afraid of lose some cash.
What makes me upset is to classify badly an entire country, with 200.000.000 people by the attitude of a single person.
It is the same thing if I say that every United State American citizen or Russia is a thief, just for the reason there is a company in US (ampwares) and Russia that "borrows" projects from other American companies.
(Just to make it rigth: I am not saying that) (I am supposing that ampwares is an American company just for the internet public "whois" information)
We are a poor country, full of third world problems, but the massive majority of our population is honest and honored!
We do not need companies and people like that. We do not need its products. But I could not to leave this fact without note it to all DIY community on the world.
