Er. This is ridiculous. The users of the Internet fall into many categories, and deciding someone is honest based on the last three letters of their email address (.EDU or .COM) is as hokey as using the first three! What is my magic solution? None. I've bought a few things. Mostly I arrange with the seller that he sends me something, I use it; if it works he gets a check. If he doesn't want to trust me, we don't deal. He feels better, I feel better, and I sleep well at nights :-) (followups to alt.sex) #Ted #wewst1@unix.cis.pitt.edu Ehud -- Ehud Gavron (EG76) gavron@vesta.sunquest.com
