Posted By: <b>Jerry</b><p>I'm a new member to the forum and enjoy it very much. As far as the B/S/T forum goes , I have been reluctant to pull the trigger on some of the cards listed because I didn't recognize the poster at the time. I was wondering if it would be a good idea or fesible to have some sort of a Feedback forum as part of the B/S/T, where you could post that you had a good trade or transaction with a member. Therefore noobs like me would have a place to check for refrences. Just a suggestion. Please delete if I'm out in Left Field on this.<br />Happy Collecting<br />Jerry<br /><br /><br />edited title to be a little more specific

Posted By: <b>Josh K.</b><p>Jerry, <br /><br />I think you will find that there have been surprisingly few problems using the b/s/t thread. I have bought and sold to many people I didnt know at the time and have never had a problem. If you dont recognize the name of a person offering a card, I would suggest emailing some of the board members who's names you do recognize and ask if they have any info on the person.

Posted By: <b>Chris</b><p>Jerry,<br /><br />I stop by every once in awhile to check the b/s/t, but not spending too much time here I often don't recognize names. That said, I've probably had 10-12 transactions and have never had even the slightest problem.<br /><br />Chris

Posted By: <b>leon</b><p>I have looked for some kind of a feedback system with NET54 and there isn't one. Although it's definitely caveat emptor over there I have not heard of any deals going sour....there have been a few that got a little sideways but overall I think 99.9% of them have been good for the buyer and seller. You can always shoot me an email for a reference and if I know, or know of the person, I will let you know... It's a lot safer there than on ebay although we don't have a feedback system. I do always want to know of any big issues as I will try to help...but for the most part I do stay out of the transactions.....kind regards

Posted By: <b>Richard Masson</b><p>If you consider doing something with someone you don't know, just ask for a reference from the board.

Posted By: <b>David Vargha</b><p>Many of the members have their eBay ID's listed in the "Vintage Links" link at the top of the page, so you can always check feedback. I will say this though, despite my excellent eBay feedback, I am not to be trusted.<br><br>DavidVargha@hotmail.com

Posted By: <b>jay behrens</b><p>What about Leon? Who does the background check on him? :-p The board is just one big scam for him to acquire the really cool rare stuff <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14><br /><br />Jay<br><br>I like to sit outside, drink beer and yell at people. If I did this at home, I would be arrested. So, I go to baseball games and fit right in.

Posted By: <b>leon</b><p>I used to think that also when there were other moderators. You can ask them about it too...so far being moderator has helped me get 0 good deals....I'm out here just like the rest of us...hunting and pecking...now, if you really want to ask someone about deals ask 'ole Bigfish.....that guy is all over the place.... <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14>

Posted By: <b>joe brennan</b><p> I have done several transactions on the B/S/T threads with out a problem. Barry Slate, Leon, David Levin, Tom, and Charlie O'Neal. Every time I sent my money I received my cards. If I've omitted someone its just an oversite due to CRS. I'll amend later. joe<br><br>A scared man can't gamble and a jealous man can't work.
