These types of threads are really best handled with patience, a kind word, and PMs. The overwhelming majority are innocent life situations that clearly are more important than a simple transaction. I bought a pistol from a man last month, and didn't hear from him for days. Rather than cause a stink I decided to be patient. Guy calls me out of the blue and says he had kidney stones from hell; I can't fault the man for that. We met up and all went well.


The factory of the future will have only two employees, a man and a dog. The man will be there to feed the dog. The dog will be there to keep the man from touching the equipment. � WARREN G. BENNIS
