If it's the Dahon dealer who got banned you will be fine. He was always super helpful on the folder site and it was a huge loss when he was removed. I would have no issue with buying something from his site and almost bought a Hammerhead before my Airnimal from him but the frame was too small. Of course my belief is any information on folders from builders/businesses is good and it is up to us as members to weed through what is or what is not in our best interests.
