Normally, I'm not one to flame.  In fact, this is a first.  However,
because I feel a bit unjustly treated by the
person who posted the below message, I feel some
response is in order.

Last week I had an e-mail commitment to buy the
below system (with a printer included).  Tom had
confirmed w/me that his friend who owns the system
said it was a go.  Yesterday, after not hearing
from him re: shipping proceedures, I called on the
phone.  He told me then that his friend had sold
the system through the newspaper for a higher
price without his knowlege,  OK, I thought, things
like this happen, even if this friend is a dog for
going back on his word.  Today I find the below
post for the same system (sans printer) that I'd
made the deal to buy.  Well, I'm feeling that
something is not quite right here.  I'll leave it
up to the folks in cyber-land to draw their own
conclusions.  Pacem,

James MEacham
