I would like to thank all the businesses/vendors that support Barter Town... I think many times (self-included), we take for granted the amount of expense and effort that goes into keeping Barter Town going. However, these businesses really deserve praise (and our patronage) because they carry a lot of the burden that we don't/can't/won't.
I believe,if there is any parity in price (ie within 5% of the best price/Amazon and in reality many beat Amazon), we really should make an effort to buy from these businesses/vendors to ensure them knowing that we appreciate their support of Barter Town and that their money is well spent. It really takes little time and could one day make the difference between a trolling (we know who I am talking about) versus real email on Barter Town closing. I for sure know it is hard to avoid running down to your local GW shop (if you have one) and getting immediate gratification on release day but it is doable and will help all of us in the long run.
I also will be getting a paying membership (as soon as I can figure out how - lol) to put "my money where my mouth is" and I would challenge all of you to think about using a little of your Christmas loot and/or saved eBay fees to get a paying membership.
Just my two cents...
Thanks,
Sean

Awesome!!!! Thanks! Let me go do that right now... That link makes it a lot easier to get the paying membership.
I really appreciate all the sacrifices the admins make to allow us the freedom to use this as a forum for safe trades... Also, I appreciate you Eric (specifically) as you helped me learn the ropes and get through my first difficult (almost went bad) transaction.
Thanks,
Sean

You're welcome.
That's just how we roll around here. Any other staffer would've been just as helpful.
But I do appreciate the kind words.
