[QUOTE="Teh Fixer, post: 943901, member: 2"] [b]Re: Deal gone bad with jobo157 BEWARE[/b] This is not how it will ever work here. LRH (Len and all of his staff) appreciates the difficulties our members may have with a seller or buyer, but will never condone the use of personal information or the perceived threats that these kinds of responses imply as a legitimate method of solving your classifieds problems. We will do what we can to help, but the nature of this type of buying and selling leaves us all with limited recourse - and Len with great liability, should something bad happen.

If you can provide me with direct links to any website's feedback section, I will have a look to see if it might be something we can use here. That would be too restrictive. There are a lot of qualified buyers and sellers that would not be able to do either if they had to post 100 messages first. I found 3 comments you made in 2 threads, one you started.
