Kin, OMG - are you serious? You too are banned??  :-o

-edit-

I almost do not know what to say at this point. Seems if anyone disagrees with Red or tries to interject with a superior or different moral compass, you're going to get banned.

I'm starting to think something else is going on here. Medication issue perhaps. Stress. I dunno. It's all very weird. Hate to see it continue, but if it's going to...

Against my better judgment, here I am. If you are going to be an ass and post something out of context, including publishing my email address, at least be complete.

Do you really not have the ability to look in the mirror? You publish a private email including my email address and everything is great. I do it and I'm a total asshole. Think about that, if you can.

Hey!

I know it's NOMB but it's New Years day. What are the chances we can all call it even, be friends again, and let this thread RIP?  This is a great place to hang out and 2008 has been VERY hard on everyone. Perhaps the new year will be better for all.

Cheers!
-Jeff

In a perfect world - YES, there's certainly some apologies that should be made. But it's not enough to just say "I'm sorry". Behaviours and attitudes clearly need to be changed and this business of blocked bidders is completely and utterly childish. If the acceptable business and personal MO is to be immature, manipulative, controlling and degrading to the Amiga community, I'm surprised certain people have lasted this long here. Honestly.  

Okay Red - you go first...  

lol

Perhaps you should look in the mirror too Jim.

But then if you did, you would realise all you had to do was apologise to Christian Publicly like I said to you privately via Email.
There is nothing else you could do since you "Gobbed Off", so be my guest! - Carry on digging a hole!

From what I can make out of him so far, an apology's pretty unlikely. That would mean having to eat a little humble-pie and his head seems too big for that.

He'll probably pull a classic moderator move and "Close the Thread" (tm) or ban the lot of us, before he's 6ft under. . :lol:

Back to the basics:

300Euro is a quite normal price for a B2060 in europe, maybe a bit on the low side, but far from being "waaaaay to cheap".

Running into such a thread with that remark was just as uncalled for as other people running inot red's auctions claiming his goods were overpriced.

People wanting to sell should be allowed to set their own prices and the market should decide wether it's hot or not.

Such behavoiur is IMO only acceptable if prices are waaaaay out of line, like a noop selling rare stuff for pennies or someone selling a "rare" A1200 for 500Euro.
1. Make an announcment.
2. Wait a while.
3. Check if it can actually be done.
4. Wait for someone else to do it.
5. Start working on it while giving out hillarious progress-reports.
6. Deny that you have ever announced it
7. Blame someone else

in the defense of Red, I've bought from him a couple of times, and he's been very reliable and prices very reasonable.

I know he doesn't do what he's been accused of doing. I never saw him buy from a forum member. He gets his stuff from local Amiga groups in the US, or collectors who quit and their sell stuff in bulk cause they can't be bothered to sort and sell them individually. sometimes drives long mileage to get them. I never saw him get something and pump it more expensive later.

Some of the stuff he sells appearantly he doesn't know what it's worth. Like those 2 meg A500 upgrades. He's more into 8 bits I guess, and maybe misguided by some ridiculously overpriced ebay auctions. After all it's very hard to put a price on this hardware since none of them are being made anymore (well some of them are being made, but they're not our concern atm) and everyone have their individual values for certain stuff (like for me I get an A500+ + 1mb chip exp anyday instead of the 2mb chip ram upgrade and also end up with ECS denise. but someone desperate to upgrade their a2000 could justify the price for 2mb chip ram boards.)

I believe what he posted he posted to help the seller sell his stuff, thinking it was a good deal for the buyer. I'm not sure if he implied if it should be sold for more or something. But then English is not my first language and I may be interpreting it wrong way.

I don't see what all the fuss is about. This is a free and open forum where everyone is entitled/encouraged to share their opinion(s) and that's what red did. By the same token, it's perfectly reasonable for those who disagree with him to express their opinions. What I don't care for is the suggestion that he hasn't got the right to share his opinion or the unnecessary aspersions being thrown his way. Methinks I smell some sour grapes.
