Best post of the thread Ron. Thank you for your service and welcome home.
Warp, the PMAG questions I brought up were in reference to the post on condescension. They were two examples of how one might respond to a (fictitious in this case) post about PMAGS at a decent price, the 'ol vinegar and honey analogy if you will. A response to a demanding, and in its own right condescending post expecting a source is often met with a seemingly equal amount of condescension in both a refusal to share and a healthy amount of scorn for the indignation shown. For example: "You should have asked nicely. Now I don't care if you ever find PMAGS! Think I'll go back and buy a few more, the green ones were only $12. Enjoy your Thermelts!" similar to my fictitious 20 year old driving a nicer car than me demanding gas money. If it were a used Escort and he wasn't an insistent jerk, help would be forthcoming. IOW Warp, some people make friends, others become their own worst enemy.
Back to brass and selling it to shops that buy, don't expect to receive the same amount the owner sells it for as he must and will make a profit.
