Smooth transaction in my case. My only 'complaint' would be, he leaves all his previously sold inventory online to intermingle with current stock, which is well, odd.<br /><br />-Jonathan<br />Jonathanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01697927788277535292noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-137677673775151256.post-28363174956622102302021-04-09T19:28:24.818-07:002021-04-09T19:28:24.818-07:00Horrible person, IMO.

I get so tired of all of that nonsense with passive aggressive booksellers trying to protect their wares. What happens when the book is sold? Do they still try to protect the image? I doubt it. When it's gone what's the point of all that protection? Waste of everyone's time. You can't stop people from taking screenshots on their phones anyway.

I guess we won't be dealing with each other in future.

I got back a terse reply that he had would sue me for copyright infringement if I didn't immediately remove the two pictures from my web page.Bevishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10052265072511397644noreply@blogger.com
