<DIV> Hi Paul</DIV>
<DIV> I think perhaps half a dozen is a little high. Perhaps</DIV>
<DIV> 4 or 5 would be about right. After exchanging <SPAN class=correction id=""><SPAN class=correction id="">emails</SPAN></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV> with a few people I find the same names <SPAN class=correction id="">re occurring</SPAN>.</DIV>
<DIV> My bad luck that I found them? Yeah probably.</DIV>
<DIV> Let me just say this about the <SPAN class=correction id="">majority</SPAN> of people on</DIV>
<DIV> this list. I find the people here very <SPAN class=correction id="">knowledgeable</SPAN> and</DIV>
<DIV> the exchange of information very open and informative.</DIV>
<DIV> Maybe I have over reacted? I do apologize for that.</DIV>
<DIV> Sometimes frustration <SPAN class=correction id="">overrides</SPAN> good judgment.</DIV>
<DIV> <SPAN class=correction id="">Jeri</SPAN></DIV> <BR>-----Original Message-----<BR>From: Paul Perry <<SPAN class=correction id=""><SPAN class=correction id="">pfperry</SPAN></SPAN>@melbpc.org.<SPAN class=correction id=""><SPAN class=correction id="">au</SPAN></SPAN>><BR>To: synth-diy@dropmix.xs4all.nl<BR>Sent: Tue, 20 <SPAN class=correction id=""><SPAN class=correction id="">Sep</SPAN></SPAN> 2005 00:09:19 +1000<BR>Subject: Re: [<SPAN class=correction id=""><SPAN class=correction id="">sdiy</SPAN></SPAN>] ethics of suppliers/rant<BR><BR>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>>After about a dozen or so transaction I have found the clear<BR>>majority to have ended in simple fraud. Or at the very least <BR>>a complete arrogant and uncaring dishonest attitude.<BR>>Is it just me? Does anyone else here have this experience?<BR></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I find this statement difficult to believe.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>It implies that in the <SPAN class=correction id=""><SPAN class=correction id="">S-DIY</SPAN></SPAN> community, there are at least</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>half a dozen bad eggs! Even were this true (and I don't for a minute believe it)</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>how unlucky could a person be, to find all six of them, out of a dozen transactions!!</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Personally, I've dealt with many on this list (buyer and seller) and,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>never a spot of bother. It would be a shame if anyone was put off</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>by this completely unsupported allegation, which is hardly helpful to</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>the <SPAN class=correction id=""><SPAN class=correction id="">S-DIY</SPAN></SPAN> community.</FONT></DIV>
