[quote=Edchris177]My personal feeling is that if an online vendor is bad, then out them. That is really the only way to drive them mostly out of business, & keep online selling relatively honest.
It also probably helps from a prevention point of view. It may well serve as a deterrent to someone who is contemplating a less than honest ad.
The honest sellers never worry about being embarrassed publicly, they may well ship a defective item, but they rectify it.
Several years ago I bought a set of spreader bars from a vendor here who always has ads. When they turned out to be seized solid, he lost no time in giving me suggestions on how to free them, & when it didn't work issued a prompt refund. That's how it should work, & I'm sure he values his reputation more than the $50.
I would not hesitate to deal with him again, & have given his contacts to several people up here needing some parts.
The bad apples, screw 'em, as long as you don't post malicious lies that might attract libel action.[/quote]
