                     in: (Local) Sysop Mail

I got your message about the CD-Rom & Soundcard.

We had a deal. I must have asked you at least 3 times if you DEFINATELY
wanted the CD and Soundcard.
I told you I had to know if it was DEFINATELY sold so I could order a
replacement soundcard.
You said YES, I ordered the card, I rang you today and told you the card
was at the Post Office and that I'd pick it up on Monday. You were very
happy to hear this.
In the meantime, I've told 2 other people that rang me about it that
the CD and S/card were sold.

Now I get home and find a message saying you don't want the Drive & Card
afterall, because you bought one somewhere else.

Now I've got a C.O.D. package waiting for me at the P.O. for $125, which I
don't have the money to get.

I'll borrow the money to get the C.O.D. package from the Post Office,
because I had a Gentlemans agreement with the guy sending it to me, that if
he sent it, I'd pick it up, and to me my reputation as an honest and
reliable person to do buisness with is an asset worth protecting at any
cost.
A sentiment you obviously will not understand.

And then you have the gall to ask me if I'll still sell you my Shareware CD
collection?
You've gotta be kidding.
I'll give them away before I sell them to you.

Thanks NOT!!!

Oh yeah, I've finished this message now.
After I save it I'll Forward it to several other mail networks, so other
people may be forewarned about doing buisness with you.
