have been asleep since Jim posted

I would like to draw on one comment made in a previous thread to pose one point:

It was noted that you do not always quote a value in your listings. Looking at the individual items concerned it is clear that you use an out of date book where the values in that book are considerably higher than TCR or indeed the 'real market price'

However, when TCR is higher, or James' values are not high enough for your liking, you do not quote any value.

This seems to be an amazing coincidence for someone claiming not to have a copy of TCR.

My final point is that all those who have risen to your defence are either 'experienced' chippers or those that have a copy of TCR to hand and know which values it states.

I have not seen a string of 'newbies' jumping to your defense. They are either embarrased to post or not on this board.

The point many of us are making is that you are deliberately misleading inexperienced buyers that are unaware of the chipboard and probably do not have any catalog. In my view that puts you on a par with Rene. I feel pity that you have to stoop so low. If and when collectors find out they have been misled (and that does not necessarily mean they actually overpaid) you could fully sympathise with them if they left the hobby completely.
