as a new member, something that pinside REALLY needs to do is force all distributors (and others involved in "professional selling") to be clearly identified in their avatar area...

from the outside looking in, it is VERY obvious he is gaming the marketplace...

it has nothing to do with being a "great seller" (or the current foolishness around "i gotta have THAT number")... it has to do with "full disclosure"...

with prices paid carefully blanked out... perhaps he'd like to tell us the distributor price, how much money he actually put up, and how many he actually has...

sorry, but again, sitting on the sidelines gives a clearer view of what is going on...

^^^

others made the justification in another for sale thread was that he put up xxx amount of dollars and therefore took risk, and is now "good to gouge"...

however, the xxx amount of dollars of risk was based upon retail price... which it's unlikely a distributor is paying... i'm not privy to jjp distributor agreements, but given it's a new product from a new vendor, it's unlikely the distributor is fronting a whole bunch of funds (but i could be wrong there)...

the "serial numbers" aren't relevant to my point... those are a red herring... my point ties back to my first post, which is all distributors/professional sellers should be identified as such...

back to your normally scheduled programming...
