The thing he obviously forgets is that its "forum rats" like us who do the purchasing and with the known good sellers you mention, if he doesn't step uip to the plate, he's gonna go to the wall. Its not a huge hobby in the greater scheme of things and most information/gossip, call it what you will, gets known, either by word of mouth or on forums such as this. I'm sure the good sellers who serve us well have had an increase in thier sales with people extolling the virtues of thier services. It can work the other way too.
