Glad to see you're using your discretion with regard to such matters,
after all some jerkfaces even call people out as 'potential' bad traders
WHEN in fact THEY HAVE NEVER EVEN TRADED WITH THEM!!!!  (Funny huh!)

But seriously, I think, with regard to net-deals-protocol, once the check
has been cached [sik] you're entitled to *at least* a reply via email with
an update on the sellers status.

State the _facts_ and you'll never be at fault.
