Umm... No, if someone is selling something, accepts money for it, which in the eyes of the law is a bona fide CONTRACT, then I think it is VERY much in the interests of the mailing list for everyone to at least know who they are dealing with in possible future transactions and what the outcome of a sale might end up being with this seller, especially one who agrees to a price and then asks the list for values on a car that is already sold and then, within 24 hours, decides NOT to sell the car, even after accepting payment. So, if someone on the list were to agree to sell you something, take the money (which is really an interest free loan, correct?), and then decide not to sell it to you, you would feel comfortable with this person advertising other items on the list and not warning people to be careful in dealing with this person because they don't follow through with their contracts, correct? I just think that it shows extremely poor judgement on the part of the seller, according to what I heard, and I feel that, given the circumstances and the email that Nick posted concerning pricing, there was reasonable justification to post publically asking him for his side of the story. But Brian, if you don't feel this way, then how about buying a 1956 Adventurer from me for $2000.00?? Rust-free original, garaged it's entire life, etc. Tell you what, send me the $2000.00 and then in a week after I use your money interest free, I'll send it back to you and tell you I changed my mind. Would that bother YOU? The only difference is that you would have the benefit of knowing you weren't really getting the car, right? I didn't accuse, I merely asked Nick for his side of the story.
