[NTLK] Extremely negative experience dealing with Newtonsales.com

[Dale Raby]

Ferdi is well-known around the list, as others will tell you.  I avoid
doing business with people who have a bad reputation... in other
words, check 'em out before your send 'em your gold.

I've always tried to properly represent items I list for sale, and
when I screw up, I ask what I can do to fix it.  Then I do what they
ask.  A ruined reputation is worse than any loss of revenue.  This is
universally true whether one is a prostitute, a blacksmith, or a
physician.  (Yes, I am ONE of the three... take your pick!)
