Ted,

I echo Don's comments - and told you so in private. If you want to publish the numbers either here - or on your website - that is your choice, I'd assist you with either, as you know. But, it should be by YOUR choice.

My parting comment is do NOT let someone back you into a corner on this topic. In reading the "adjacent" thread, my opinion is â??PoliceLugerâ? has a lot of growing up to do - both professionally and handling his professional jealousy. I was tempted to ask, when he boosted Lugers (by his own definition, as he himself, does Strawing for 3rd parties, but he also posted that was â??boosting), what marks he applied to his strawed parts on his customerâ??s Lugers. My guess is none â?? as the strawed parts sent to him typically wonâ??t include a frame to be marked with a rework mark, such as you do. So he holds you to a different standard then he, PoliceLuger - holds himself. And that's both funny - and a sad commentary as to â??double standardsâ?.

Ted, don't let others run your business for you - your work and professionalism speaks for themselves. And your decisions are yours alone.
