Jim,

I read the rest of the e-mails, It still seems to me that the thread is
based on people are whingeing about Dave's prices, or different ideas to get
him to drop them. I never said that anyone wanted to see Dave fail, where
the hell did you get that from? All I said was that the entire thread was a
whinge about the prices. If I was in his shoes I would have high prices as
well. I was thanking Dave for being a great source of BEAM parts, and
having a dig at him for not commenting, if he had tried to defend his prices
and stance, the argument would have escalated.
I think you totally missed the point of my previous e-mail. Hmmm..........
