"i prefer
to go to someone who doesnt have a past of trying
to make such huge outregous profits on something
so
obvious from where they got it from"
That's all fine and good. I'm sure there are
lots of other people who feel the same way. ANd
people who didn't know about it, know now and can
make their own decisions on whether or not to do
business with this person.
But besides you not agreeing with his/her
business practices, I don't it's valid to pass
judgement. I know it's been said many times on
this forum, but you don't know how many times the
cels YOU own have passed hands. You may have been
charged 200% more than what the dealer paid for
it. Yes, they PAY for our cels before WE do.
(They don't get them for free unless they are
REALLY lucky)
The only difference between this guy and other
dealers is that you can actually see what's going
on. Are most of the people you buy cels from
losers, too? They are DOING IT FOR THE MONEY,
aren't they?
I'm also not saying it's not a bummer to see a
cel on one site, only to be it resold on eBay,
but as you MUST know by now, the early bird
catches the worm. If you got my most coveted cel
at the last update and decided to sell it right
away, what can I do to stop you? Nothing. I can
only choose not to buy it from you or cough up
the money.
But what I originally posted about was the
anonymous posts. (the "insult and hide" tactic)
I think if someone were outright insulting me,
I'd like to know who it was so I could defend
myself. Stating an opinion is one thing,
insulting is another. It's just child-like. In
case you haven't noticed, it can make this forum
an unfriendly place sometimes.
