You can add "liar" to my list of charms, I guess, but you did ask a decent
question....

I was careful with my wording not to call him out-and-out dishonest.  I have
never dealt with him, and that would be wrong.  If anyone's following along at
home, I DO NOT THINK THIS POSTER IS A DISHONEST LEGO DEAL-MAKER.  I do have to
reitierate that I doubt how honest his intentions in posting "come look at my
ship creation- which just happens to be for sale" are.

I doubt you'd find many people to whom the phrase "It's not one of your more
endearing traits" didn't come across as a personal slam.
