Thanks for the reccomendation... let's hop it is not misplaced. Without turning
this in to a mutual back slapping thread, I'd just like to say that Frank is
one of the best _buyers_ I have dealt with... I will not bore eveyone with the
details, but I am sure others will agree with me.

The question here is what is a good seller? A seller how describes a set well,
ships prompty etc... is what we all espect. What makes a good seller, is one
who, when things go wrong, will bend over backwards to make the buyer happy.

(...) The criteria I used in the big list is would I continue to use that seller. The absolute best list is those I would not expect even a minor problem from. I would still keep Larry on the list because I still don't expect I would have a problem (...) (26 years ago, 6-Jun-00, to lugnet.market.services)
