RE: Just venting...

["Taylor, Jeff" <JTaylor1@cpm.dot.state.nj.us>]

First thing I did was thank Toby for not forgetting me after a period of
time.  (good memory Toby!)  I made a suggestion but not sure how everyone
would like to handle it.  Since we e-mail all day or get e-mail all day I
think this could be done.  If something comes up on auction in lets say at
EBAY, and you are bidding on it.....we could have a section in type3.org for
those buying at action.  Lets say Toby finds something he wants BADLY!....He
would go to the Auction.org section and say...."I'm bidding on the D-Jet
trouble shooting guide and If I get this guide....I will post for future
Type3'ers to view.  If your interested in this as much as I am....please
e-mail me."  Ta Da.....no hard feelings and everyone benefits.  I think that
there might have to be some sort of time limit on this since the products
are on auction for at least 3 days.  Give the person at least 3 or 4 hours
left on auction close time or something and talk about it.  Less then
that.....if you see that auction in the posting....its TABOO!  

Reason for the D-jet guide thing between Toby and I was.......... I was
bidding my butt off because I wanted it....and didn't realize it was Toby I
was raising the price on.......because I just got on the Type3 list.  Toby
paid much more for the book then he would have and I still didn't get it.  I
stopped bidding after I e-mailed him and asked for a copy if I backed out.
We compromised and now I'm getting a photo copy so I'm able to use the
manual.

That wouldn't happen between this group if we work together like we do
everyday with advice, gratitude, relating and understanding.

Hey....its just a thought and I shouldn't voice something that I don't take
care of (not sure on how much work it would take to get something like that
up and running).......I'm just happy to have the Type3.org at my fingertips.
