I got burned about 2 years ago by a couple of people on 'the list'.......not
sure it was specifically THIS list......might have been Anatek,ServiceTalk,or
Repairworld.
But I sent out 3(2 to one person,1 to another) new B&W picture tubes, for
the Wyse Terminals,on the 'honor system'.Not only did I not get paid for them,
I didn't even get shipping out of those 2 creeps...........
