    Since when do we have the right to dump on someone's post? Doug's H&P, whatever the condition, is worth what a buyer will pay. He didn't misrepresent it or claim some special provenance.

    His price is his price. Your silence is all that is needed to show us if you think it's fair or not.

    As they used to tell us back in the '50s, "If you can't say something nice, then don't say anything at all."

    Always dangerous ground getting personal. Hopefully a forum moderator will step in.

    A member replied to a post giving his opinion, right or wrong, of the product offered for sale. He didn't attack the person posting the product. But, someone felt the need to personally attack that poster, not his opinion. Personally, I have no problem listening to a different opinion or viewpoint. It then becomes my choice to agree or disagree. That's what happens when you put on your big boy pants.

    If I felt that someone had listed an item way to high, I would have sent a PM to the seller.

    It's kinda like going to a gun show, flea market, antique store, etc. If I'm looking at, say, a Mississippi rifle and the seller's price is too high to haggle, I just say "Thanks for letting me look at your Mississippi", set it down and walk away.

    If his price is too high, it won't sell. If it sells, the price wasn't too high. The market takes care of itself.
