Depends which complaining he's referring to.  I was "complaining" a 
month or two ago that glossa7 knows the value of his products and 
prices them at a reasonable, but not great, price:

There was one followup that said something about his not providing 
programming assistance with a standard someone purchased, which could 
be the other complaint.

That said, my complaint was a bit tongue-in-cheek.  While I wish people 
would sell PRS10s for $50, I don't really expect it to happen in a 
semi-rational market. :)
