        Ok Joel. I used to be on this list  a year and a half ago regularly, and if
anyone remembers correctly burnt copies of Otaku, Pentamerous Metamorphosis
and Space since they were out of print. many took me up on this offer and I
heard no complaints.
        I then moved out of the country for awhile (yes, I was traveling! and a
mailing list was an impossibility, let alone finding e-mail).

Anyway, I understand, and apologize to you (and the rest of the list) if I
got a bit pissed. It's just a terrible feeling to know that you're honest
and have others doubt you. I didn't take into consideration past experiences
of others on here with thieves like "Gil Gersham". I guess, it's cause I
have trusted and, touch wood, haven't been burnt.

Sincerely, (for what it's worth!)
Amitab Mukerjee

I don't appreciate the implication.




     Amitab {"Oxybate" <xxxxxxxx@xxxxxxxxxx.xxx>}:

     i too raised a brow over this amazing list of goodies.  i apologize if
     we're questioning your integrity; but the sad fact remains that folk
     occasionally get burned in these faceless transactions (anyone recall
     the name of Gil Gershman and his myriad of email addresses and
     pseudonyms?).  i think a few folk are put off by the fact that we
     haven't seen your name pop up a whole lot (at least, not on the
     ambient listserv), and no-one i've touched base with recalls having
     dealt with you.  this is why i asked for a few trader references, and
     why i'm put off in that you couldn't provide any.  i write all this
     with the unease of knowing that i might be doubting a truly honest
     trader.  if that is the case, please accept my genuine apologies, and
     throw the interested parties on this list some sort of bone when asked
     for references.
