Try to keep this short but I feel compelled to share this with the rest of you.
About three weeks ago (maybe 4) I was about 90% sure I would be making a trip to Houston on business so I bid on a set of rear weights for a Cub from a fella named Randy Alpin in Arkansas figuring on a side trip to pick them up. Well I won the bid (on YT Auction) and promptly sent off the payment. Then my trip was cancelled! Well being too heavy to have shipped cost effectivly I thought I would have to forgo my money and cut my losses. I understood that it was my "rush to bid" which had put me in this situation and was willing to accept the loss and informed Randy that I would still try to arrange something but wasn't very hopefull but would not expect him to refund my payment as I assumed all responsibility for this happening.
To get to the point, he emailed me and said he thought he had a buyer locally and if it was OK he would sell them and refund my money!
He didn't have to do this but did and I have to say its actions like these by folks in the tractor hobby, like Randy, which can really restore your faith in your fellow man.
Sorry for the long post I just felt this fella deserved some recognition and to say I wouldn't hessitate to reccommend doing business with him to any of you. He's definitly one of the good guys!

I've been meeting and doing business with folks on this site for almost a year and only got stiffed once. Even THAT was only for the shipping on some parts I donated to a guy that was trying to repair damage after a fire. Not bad for trusting "strangers" who could easily remain anonymous. jim
