I know Louis Colavecchio personally and he was in prison only until 2000, not until 20006. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 95.55.27.111 (talk) 14:28, 9 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

that letterpress thing looks and reads like slander, would editors look into it - I mean this is really defamation of a person who is alive, he is not convicted of selling "bad letter pesses" - what is this about? Some personal vendetta? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.196.81.181 (talk) 23:30, 28 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

 The "letterpress thing" is a series of events well documented on Briar Press, and on the dbdatabase.   A quote from the database reads:

"Subsequent to his life of token counterfeiting, Colavecchio began an up-start letterpress printing equipment and restoration business. Colavecchio’s website advertises the redesign of a popular tabletop letterpress machine available for sale. Colavecchio reports that the project remains on course even though a large proportion of customers has publicly lodged complaints about time delays and financial inconsistencies with the new press and fraud, severe misrepresentation and destruction of property regarding his press restoration practices, which many customers have physically documented through photos and through diagnosis from trade letterpress printing experts." While I don't know of any convictions related to his letterpress activities, the number of complaints made publicly by people who believe themselves to have been defrauded would warrant it's inclusion. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 184.176.222.218 (talk) 22:28, 19 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
