[Milsurplus] E-bay / a work of genius

[Wammes Witkop]

Oh well,

Some weeks back I ran across a different scheme again, doing business 
with a German Seller. He was quite prepared to give me positive feedback 
- after I would applaud him in the feedback system. Nice one! Seller 
only gives feedback after receiving. Turning the tables, so to speak.
Well, I can live without feedback...
