On a personal note, I have traded with both parties, and have had good experiences with both.
That said, the moderators wish to close the thread at this point. In our view this is one of those situations where misunderstandings have arisen, and we don't think either party intentionally meant to do harm to the other. We would like to have seen this thread end on a good note for all concerned; but we do not want to let hurt feelings escalate any further.
