are the parts very unique or hard to find? if not, then i would in all likelihood, move on to someone who isn't put out w/ simple requests to verify compatibility/functionality.....like me or Daw2 (at least he was before he started charging $35/picture)

Although there is nothing "wrong" with browsing, I feel it is somewhat a inconsiderate. However, the upside is that one has pictures for the serious or somewhat serious buyer. So far, I have been very lucky in the parts that I have bought off the forums, BUT I have never heard of someone asking for money for a picture and being told I should not push too hard for information because that person could always sell the part for a lot more money. Just sounded odd to me. Also, generally sellers are pretty straight forward with information. I get somewhat concerned when terms or words start being used interchangably so that the part is not being described accurately. Let's see if the prospective seller answers my last effort for a straight foward answer to a very simple question.
