No but I googled it, and there's a bunch of stuff about the guy. Apparently he sells cheap Chinese repro parts, and every time he starts getting a bad reputation, he starts another website. That's just what I found in about 2 minutes on google though.

I wouldnt hurt a fly. Unless it kept buzzing around in my face, and annoying me.

It is bottom of the barrel grade D aftermarket chinese parts...
My friend buys stuff from him on his used cars he flips... It's cheap, and he's all about bottom lines. I would never install anything on my personal car from Hanz.
He sold a bunch of people tdi rebuilt fuel pumps all that failed less than a couple of hundred miles after being rebuilt... He sells really poor quality stuff, very cheap.Some of my work

Yeah... That would be a Prothe (AKA "Rothenbacker Engineering") site.
Steer clear, friend.
Go Google those names. Bad joojoo there - lots of it.
All-time favorite (long, long read - but, it tells what kind of operations Peter Rothenbacker runs):
