Definition of a bad trader:
A bad trader doesn't send his part of the deal, and won't reply
to emails. EVERYONE, can have some trouble, so please don't be
too hasty posting a persons name, unless others have posted him
as a bad trader. If you haven't received tapes within 2 monts,
then post his name.

I don't want to be labeled as a defender of bad traders.But I think 60
days is a reasonable time to wait before labeling a person.I also want
to say that I did a trade with Nat(mentioned above)and it went very
well.He is not a bad trader!Thanx,Doug6
