<p>[QUOTE=&quot;medoraman, post: 1948208, member: 26302&quot;]Exactly. Do you have favorite sellers Sodude? Are you willing to buy from a new dealer because that dealer has a good reputation with others you know? Good business practices will always draw in more customers. So no, I never cheat a client and my firm has an excellent reputation. Do I believe, however, that every single transaction should be overseen by some corporate or governmental big brother to make sure its &quot;fair&quot;? Absolutely not. Capitalism means its both the buyer and seller&#039;s duty to educate themselves before entering into a transaction. We all screw up, we all make bad trades starting with baseball card trading when we were young. We learn and get better. </p><p><br /></p><p>Btw, who would you propose be the judge of every transaction Sodude? Who would have the time and expertise to, in their infinite wisdom, be able to ensure every economic transaction was &quot;fair&quot;? Last week I bought a bunch of WL halves for $7.80 a piece. Was that fair? How about the dvaravati coin I bought for $37? How about my gas for my pickup I paid $3.52 a gallon for. Are all of those fair, or did I get cheated? This is the slippery slope, WHO would judge the &quot;fairness&quot; and WHY would they want to? The only ones wanting to are people who cannot succeed in the free market so wish to use the government to make up for their deficiencies. Myself, I simply believe the free market makes up for transactions, rewarding sellers who trade ethically with more sales, and forcing education upon buyers who buy without educating themselves.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
