IMO, if a seller chooses to "advertise" via this list, someone who 
is seriously agrieved and has exhausted reasonable recourse directly 
with the seller is entirely in line to post here. The post to which 
we are responding came in response to a post from the "culprit" 
soliciting another "deal." If I were a potential customer, I would 
appreciate the warning.  

THAT'S ALL. There has been FAR too much weeping and knashing of 
teeth on this topic today. ENOUGH!  

Ham radio is, and should be, a small world. Lots of money can change 
hands on an electronic handshake, and our electronic commerce 
depends on that good will. I've generally done well, and never felt 
the need to go public with a problem. Indeed, reasonable people 
respond reasonably, and that has been true of the few issues I've 
needed to raise. But when someone behaves badly, we need to know. It 
keeps the marginal folks honest.
