[QUOTE="pmsbull, post: 410796, member: 5397"] IMO if someone asks a question, NO MATTER how basic or NOOB it may be, just answer it , WITHOUT abuse - they asked it in the right place. After all, why would you trust a flawed search engine full of redirects and paid for hit results when you can ask people who really know? We all knew NOTHING once. As for an appraisal service, again IMO the same applies - why ask Google when you can ask the experts. Give them their appraisal, but at the same time encouraging those who ask to become active members, and explaining how that would benefit them even more, and make it more than likely get a good price for their items compared to being Ebay sniped for pennies. If they chose to ignore that advice and go to ebay , so be it. Far rather handle their questions politely than alienate those who may WANT to become active, productive members of this community but never do so because they are scared away with hostility and dozens of abusive posts calling them "one post wonders". A very wise man once said, “I don’t want to belong to any club that would accept me as one of its members.” [/QUOTE]
