It's a fine line - Re: Anyone looking for parts?



Not trying to continue the arguement :P  but I happen
to agree with Brett for the most part. I think it was
just the way JP presented his "sales pitch". IMHO, all
JP had to do was list the parts he was selling, not
his bargain-basement prices...if anyone's curious they
can reply offline. IDKAY, but to me it came across as
an advertisement, not like "I'm trying to get rid of
crap"..."SPAM - it's not just for dinner anymore..."

My $0.02, ok, maybe $0.01. Hey - it's Friday!
