you insinuate that I'm ingnorant? I'm not the one who flew off the
handle because my feelings were hurt. The "big boy" thing to do would
be to resolve the dispute. You know what I meant about loss, you
still have the item to resell, the fees aren't going to bankrupt you.
(I dearly hope not, anyway). Would you be so ethical about following
through with a purchase if you found you were beng duped by a thief?
That doesn' make much sense to me. Joe was not "displeased" with what
he thought was an authentic item, he simply wanted to know if it WAS
authentic. Big difference there.
Sorry about the colloquialism, we are such savages over here in
the colonies. I gotta tell ya, the second grade was the toughest
three years of my life!!!! :)
