I don¹t think anyone thought for a minute that you were scamming. But one
does have to be careful, and someone was pointing that out. A while ago
there was a harp ad on eBay with the identical description and identical
photos to another one that had been on about a month before. We reported it
to eBay as a probable fraud and it disappeared. The same thing happens
regularly to concertinas, and the concertina forums are peppered with
warnings that something looks fishy. I think we all realized early on that
yours was legit, and I for one am perfectly prepared to believe you are
lovely honest people. And I join in welcoming you to the list, and I hope
you decide to stick around. But I don¹t think it was ³cruel² to warn people
to be careful.
Best regards,
John Roberts
