- I really don't want to get into this to deep, but you seem to be trying
- to get the BUYER their money's true worth, not the other way around. I've
- only seen one other post where someone pointed this out. If x wants to
- sell something for too much, they get flamed, if x wants to sell something
- for too little, everyone wants to buy it. So which is it, do we inform
- going both ways or not at all????
