This is my opinion and my opinion only. The one thing that trumps everything is integrity. It dosen't matter what your doing or who you are if you don't have integrity I won't have anything to do with you. You all wont sell something if the buyer that dosn't post/addvertise prises but i wonder how many of you call the supper market for prises before going shopping. Just because a buyer does not post thiere prices dose not mean they are taking advantage of anybody. I am a buyer and I do not post prices on this forum or anywhere else and yes some sellers that I buy from I pay a little higher price than others yet every one of my sellers are very happy with what I pay them. Now you ask why would I pay more to one guy and less to some one else? Well there are several reasons for this and first one is integrity. Second is quanity and quality of boards, if I addvertised my prices then I would have to pay everybody the same price regardless of quality of the boards. Here is an example of what I'm talking about. If I explain to a seller how to prep his boards to get a better price and they do it as explained to them then they get a better price but on the other hand some people are just lazy and want to just throw the boards in a box with the excess steel on them and not sorted or any thing. This creates more work for me so why should I pay the same price for these boards. Some of my sellers/buyers have very good integrity and when they tell me that they will do some thing they do it, if I call them and get a vioce mail they call me right back, if I send and e-mail they e-mail or call me right back and they don't bs me, this goes for members and nonmembers of this forum. One of my main buyer of e-waste dose not advertise prices and his prises are right up there with the main buyers on this forum. His integrity is second to none and I will continue to sell to him even if he has to lower his prises. Just my .02
