I am inclined to agree with my friend and cowboy buddy Bill. While I count as personal friends some of the dealers frequently mentioned on this board, it does appear that a more balanced approach could be possible. All of the auction bbs have a feed back mechanism; perhaps the forum moderator/owner should consider such an option. I believe we have a two fold obligation to those newby collectors entering this fascinating area of collecting history: recognition for those who have treated us exceptionally well and identification of those who have proven by their deeds that they are unscrupulous.

FWIW, the Bayonet Collectors Network works as a group to "encourage" less than fully satisfactory vendors to make good by sending many, many emails to any vendor who has been less than honest with a member and they have never had a legal problem.

FWIW, my zwei pfennig
