And this is where honest folks with either nothing to sell or have no 
purchase history on the site get left out in the cold. If all of the 
reputable sellers with good quality stock followed such a policy, 
interested hobbyists are forced towards less reputable sellers or those 
with inferior product to acquire their stock.  I've got money and interest, 
but I'm essentially ostracized because I don't frequent the auction sites.
