Message:: [QUOTE="BooksB4Coins, post: 1550737, member: 36230"]I never said it did. Nor do you have to. If you  feel that a pass should be given to the people who take the  counterfeits  and directly hurt this business/hobby with them, that is  your call and I  will respect that, but please do not insult me for not  doing the same. When it comes to  me in an attempted fraud, your are darn right I  blame that person...  "buyer" or not. At that moment I  could not care less about where something is made or who made it. In my opinion, ALL parties invovled are to blame.   I have not misinterpreted anyone, sir. You might want to take a look in  the mirror before stating such things. My initial response in this  thread was to the following: "Unfortunately, theft, fakes and ripoffs are part of Chinese culture going back centuries." Please  tell me how I misinterpreted this? It is a direct statement  that - as  worded - places an entire culture a negative light. Everything  else was nothing more than a simple disagreement that you felt it  necessary to elevate to the point of childish insults instead of  discussing as men. If anyone has misinterpreted comments, it is you. I absolutely agree, and this is exactly what started this whole mess... a  simple failure to make this distinction. Thank you for this addition,  sir.[/QUOTE]
