Default do not buy this kite

http://miami.craigslist.org/spo/535178104.html

Although I do not have the serial number of the kite and thus could not prove it in a court of law, I am pretty sure this is the kite Shannon left behind at Mattheson when we were all kiting there in November.

1) location of seller = Miami
2) kite Shannon lost - 2008 blue 10m Nemesis
3) kite bag shown a long with the kite is a SS bag ... because Shannon would have taken the Nem out of its real bag, pumped up the kite, then put the real bag back in his truck
4) Nemesis is not a c-kite, so why would it be flown on a c-kite bar. Also, our C-kite bar is not even on the market yet, nor is our regular 2008 bar ... this is a proto bar that Shannon was testing out for R&D ... not the final version. There were issues with this bar, and there have been many changes to it since then, and this bar was NEVER intended for use by the public. For that reason ALONE don't by it.

This is just wrong. Stuff happens ... boards get lost, kites get left on the beach ... but none of us would ever keep someone else's lost gear if we knew who it belonged to and could easily return it.
