Yes, I didn't mean to imply that MF is deliberately selling bad
merchandise. You won't see the bent-faceplate EDP back on the market,
though you may see the other one since it often powers up with no
obvious problem.  I've been ordering from MF for many years and will
continue to do so.  I just seem to have hit a bad batch.
