If you write anything concerning a person or company your full name needs to be in your post or obtainable from it. .

Sort of like the sign in every baseball clubhouse concerning betting on baseball:

"Any player, umpire, or club official or employee, who shall bet any sum whatsoever upon any baseball game in connection with which the bettor has no duty to perform shall be declared ineligible for one year. Any player, umpire, or club or league official or employee, who shall bet any sum whatsoever upon any baseball game in connection with which the bettor has a duty to perform shall be declared permanently ineligible."

I'm guessing Pete missed that sign.

I've met with Rick, bought from Rick and consigned with Rick.

A few things:

1) My experience meeting Rick was very nice. No crazy story or anything, but he was perfectly pleasant when I spoke to him

2) He has a team of people listing the items on eBay. At times the listings are not as thorough as I would have liked, but he/they were always super responsive with everything.

3) He is obviously a really big consigner. This means that in some cases the items he sells are shilled by the seller (or the seller's friends etc.) When I bid, I bid what I'm willing to pay. I know there's a chance things will be shilled, but definitely have won items for bids below my max bid.

4) When I sold with him, I got the money extremely quickly. Some items sold really well, while others went below what I would have expected.
