[QUOTE="Richard_H, post: 295902, member: 3919"] I guess I suppose it's the type of guy whose going to use a vintage SW forum. If everyone who signs up is expected to contribute and stay in the hobby then fine. If, however, (and I'm summising that the vast majority of people fall into this category) we've got newbies who have some vintage SW stuff and just want to sell them to people who may be interested at a fair price instead of just going straight to ebay and watching the price rise then we are not being very accommodating. I don't think it's realistic to expect every newbie to read all of the T+C and rules. (How many of us have read eBay's T+C - except Pete Gowdy I'm guessing zero) He took the time to post a FS in the correct thread with some photos and clearly won't by staying. Personally I think he's doing us the favour in this situation (hopefully PigCity gets a good deal). I don't think that all of the comments were fair and I wouldn't be surprised if we've humiliated him enough for him to run off now. However - the ones who post in the valuation thread and then disappear I totally agree deserve what they get. Equally members who low ball newbies (which Edd has said is not to happen) are just as bad. [/QUOTE]
