Subject:   Buying parts on the Internet...

>Can anyone on the list explain the protocol on buying used parts over the >internet? I have had good luck in the past buying a gas heater from Bill >Kennedy, an exhaust manifold from Mike Catlin, the listserv tshirt and vent >cap from Steve Johnson.

By convention, things bought from private parties over the Internet are shipped UPS COD. This is the most even-handed way to go about it.

But I would send either money or parts to many of the people on this list on faith.
