Mike, so hostile...
If you bothered to read the thread you stated above, you'd understand the reasoning. Low post counts are a red flag for me as they are for most of us here. If you want to take risks with all the big money you have since you're obviously a high roller, that's your right to do so. $20 is my limit with unknowns. Period. I spent more with you, not because I know you but, because you have a high positive feedback rating (ie: apparently you don't scam people- thus good enough for me)...
I, on the other hand, am not rich like you apparently are and I will ask if there is possibility of a better price. Why not? What have I got to loose? I need to make my hard earned dollar go as far as possible... And the seller can always say no or counter as you did... It's the same when I sell stuff. People always ask for the best price, if it's reasonable I go lower if not I don't, seems like common sense to me.
As for my feedback, 99% is simply posted as a courtesy just like I do for the sellers or buyers... If I have to ask, it is generally that the individual is busy. I get busy too and have been reminded a few times and I happily post my results. I don't get snippy because someone's had the audacity to ask for some feedback... Get over yourself.
It seems odd that you can respond and take a minute to make a sale but can't take another minute to acknowledge that the sale went through with no issues... I wasn't asking for you to tell eveyone how wonderful I am- although you could if you felt like it... I was merely asking you to put it up so others could see... I noticed that you have a nice little number yourself... Pretty easy to collect positive feedback and ignore those that have left it for you. Talk about sour taste...
Anyway, now that I have confirmed that this is how you do business, and you have confirmed how I do business, we can agree to never do business again.
Good day to you, sir... Heck, even a free bump.
