Hobby is a tricky one to navigate. Everyone has to make a living. Too bad sometimes it is at the expense of innocent people.

Yes there was at least one thread here about those backs, was it Rhett Y. perhaps, don't recall.
And I agree with you and Leon about needing to be cautious about internet allegations. But there are times when common sense dictates that the accuser is in a position to know what he is talking about and probably is being truthful. Case by case determination.
In any event, we live in a strange time. It seems to be very in vogue these days to trash PWCC (and man the grief I used to take on that topic) but the rest of the world of dealers and AH's seems to get a great big pass as long as they return messages and don't overcharge for shipping.
