[Milsurplus] Ethical questions at the fester.

[flood at Krohne.com]

Interesting dilemma from John.  A few times in the past I have seen 
something that I wanted that someone else was looking at.  In those cases, 
I have let the seller know that I would pay the asking price.  That does 
the following,   Lets the seller know that if he wants to he can get "his" 
price, or he can continue to deal with the person.  The decision is up to 
him.  I don't say I'll offer you X$$$$ more than Buyer "A".   It has made 
a few "customers" mad as all heck but really the item belongs to the buyer 
until terms are met and agreed on.  On the other hand if the same happens 
to me as the first guy in, I must accept, and do so without question the 
same action.  In cases where the buyer wants to include my offer into 
play,  I must stand by the offer with no additional questions about 
condition, ect...  John F.  Am I one of the guys who is on your blacklist? 
 Just wondering if I need to bring a hard hat to NEARFEST?
