Me too.
How is it that when one of us sees a higher-than-reasonable price for
something on eBay which we know is available cheaper elsewhere, people diss
the seller ("scalper", etc) and there's lots of angst, and people who try
and warn buyers are regarded with approval...
...but when someone (especially a regular) posts a higher-than-reasonable
price on LUGNET or Bricklink, posting to point it out is regarded as rude?
