for a lip-print on my left glut, just below a dingleberry, whom I have named "Herb" as a tribute. Thanks for the tons of $$ you helped me make through the years... and you didn't even get (or want) a dime! It's a shame it all had to come to an end, but I still win. Forgive me, the victory has left me giddy with glee. It's a shame you can't see the little jig I'm doing. You'll just have to try and imagine. Seriously, I gotta go. I think I nearly lost urine on that last burst of guffaw. Besides, I need to find a good club that could use a nice donation of my leftovers. (Tee Hee--I'm still giggling). I guess that says something, doesn't it?: "I would rather GIVE stuff away than pay YOU to help me sell it. Yes, that definitely is a mouthfull.

Grey Skies,

Mike Head

one last note: Have you ever considered a career that does not require any kind of customer service on your part, say....McDonald's... or.....I got it!---THE POST OFFICE! PERFECT! Yes, I suspect you may have missed your calling.

It is...

Hello! Recently, I think about a month ago, I tried to create a new user account so I could log in and contact a seller about an ad. I filled out a form and got the message about verifying information, which is cool, but I never got any kind of email response. So I tried to do it again today... no immediate response, which is fine if it's not an autoresponder, but I'm rather anxious to get my account going before "my" scope gets sold to someone else with better luck. Any idea on how long it takes to verify all the info and create the new account? (And my sympathies if you're doing it manually, that must be a real pain.)

Only 3?

Hi,

I have been tryiny, for three days, to have my account info. verified by
your site. There are items that I would like to talk to the seller's for
more information. I have given you three different email addresses and none
of them have received a response from your site? How long is the expected
wait time for you or your staff to verify the account info.?

Note: I did purchase one of the items I was looking at on your site from
e-bay. Also, I don't intend to be a seller at this time, just a buyer.

This makes sense

Herb,

I am disappointed that you cancelled my ad!
What I was looking for is EXACTLY the same as what is offered by one of
Amart's sponsors, New Mexico Skies, except of course in a different
location.
As you suggested, I looked in the forums and there is NO forum that ever
covers this type of topic.
I think that Astronomy-related travel should be legitimate; otherwise NM
Skies should not be a sponsor.
At every major star party, like NEAF, RTMC, etc, there are vendors hawking
Astro-travel.
Furthermore, people buying selling houses or land are pretty much the same
type of topic, and you let them run ads.

Although I have placed only a few ads, I was thinking about SUPPORTING,
but you made me change my mind!
