Since the charge has been leveled, I'd like to know which reseller is selling spots on the list.
While I'm upset at not winning the lottery, I also know there are other explanations for the spam email your brother received. A spammer could have intercepted/read somewhere your brother's displeasure at not getting a lotto razor and sent an email offering to sell him a spot. Your brother's system could have been hacked. (It does happen). You've called James a unscrupulous businessman, and implied James rigged the list selection, then shared it with a reseller for further profit. Those are serious charges that will damage James's business, and require some proof. James does a good business with his razors. His business is built on the quality of his product and his reputation. Doesn't make sense he'd damage it to make a few extra bucks selling a spot in a list. How do you know the majority of the selected spots were resellers?
He did damage his credibility with the way the list was handled, but I suspect it won't dent the number of razors he sells.
I'm pissed at the way the list was handled. However, everything I've read from James customer base indicates a very high level of customer satisfaction.
Just curious, has anyone else received an email offering them the chance to get a spot?

But which shooter, there were so many.... And who was behind it, was it the jealous mob boss, the vengeful dictator, the spurned wife, the ambitious underling... the list and idle speculation goes on and on and is so much fun!
Really, this topic has spun out of control. The mods should close it, it serves no purpose other than for us to vent and do damage where it shouldn't be done.
My nephew's just going to have to wait awhile to get his Wolfman.
Several months ago my Brother was approached by a club member to find him a Wolfman razor. He found one on eBay and purchased for the gentleman.
My brother wanted nothing to do with James after we were dropped from the June 2015 list by the computer glitch. So this was an eBay seller emailing him.
Yes I agree that James had an excellent reputation but how many of those comments come from multiple buyers? They need to keep the mystique going as another member noted.
Without James noting how many individuals on the July 2016 are first time buyers none of us will know the facts, only James and he is not talking. In addition how many on the list were dropped from the June 2015 list? Finally James could disclose how many on the list are eBay resellers or BST profiteers. This would show his integrity. He is too quick to blame the computer glitch.
I did not harm James reputation, he has with his so called computer glitches. Great reputations takes years to build up but only one very bad event to take it down.
