Let me guess.

 

You're sitting on a pile of books you want to move, and eBay is about to NARU all your shilling accounts.

I can see this point of view. To me, it looks like he wants to make the effort and I say go for it. Some people will shop with him, some won't - but it will be up to him to convince people, and he seems like he's willing to try it.

 

If someone changes just to be able to do business, that's not really a change, is it? It's more of the same - just manipulating people's money out of their wallets.

 

If someone changes because they want to, well that's an entirely different ball of wax but stuff like this doesn't happen without giving people a shot.

 

It's like falling in love again - you got burned once and you close up and get hardened because you never want to get burned again. It's the lifelong question that everyone answers differently: Which is better?

 

Life's tough. Get a helmet. :makepoint:

 

A purple one?

 

If that's the way you roll....

I'm with VintageComics on this. The apology is just so he can screw a handful more people. I won't be doing business with him ever.

 

Not to speak for the man but I don't think that was Vintages message per we.

 

To watchtower heir own though, I have no qualms with you blacklisting me

Personally I think you should be put on the HOS list,and not allowed to sell here again.

Nothing personal ,just business.

People get burned all the time, in varying degrees - yet we still manage to just move on and let it go. In some cases, we get burned and it's important to never let go and always hold them accountable.

 

I usually reserve that level of commitment to people who hurt family members, kill innocent people or adversely affect the well being of the human race. Guys who gyp people by shilling their auctions, regardless of what kind of potential escalation might come of that should their actions go unchecked? Yeah, not so much.

You don't need to bully him to make the right choices. He needs to figure that out for himself IMO.
