[MOPO] WHY ask a question if you don't want people to respond RE: WHY respond to a Want List, if you do not want to sell

[JR]

You asked, I gave the response that occurred to me. You didn't mention you'd had a problem with this person before, or my response would have been different. But... what the heck?  If you were certain of the way you handled it, why did you even ask us the question?
