Chris--

I for one appreciate you comments to the list and the information on PTH.  In
my opinion they've got their system set up to take advantage of people. It's
even clearer now that you mapped out what it says on their website and how
they  sucker you in to getting them to give you one of their "valuations" AKA a
low  bid. Combine that with the info from listee Florian who subscribed to
their 'for  sale" list showing they sell synchros like yours for $20K and $30K
and we as  listees are becoming more informed consumers if you will. Not to
mention just  more informed in general.

So again, I appreciate your time in helping the rest of us with info. on
PTH. I also appreciate the sarcasm, and my one complaint about your post is  I
really wish it contained more. ;)

Finally, for what it's worth, The Better Business Bureau gives Pop Top
Heaven one of it's lowest possible ratings and notes:
"We have enough concern about this company that we recommend caution when
doing business with it."

(My guess is since the BBB could easily be the focus of a slander  suit if
they publish something untrue and infamitory they lean toward  conservative with
their comments.)

Thanks again Chris.

Best,
Jeff
