I understand your point of view, and it's a valid point you have made, enough is enough. As for myself I will no longer trade with them. This way hurting them most, in their wallet. But I understood from your previous post (Ex dealer) is a dealer that is no longer there so removed (temp. or permanent from the forum). What would prevent them for entering the forum again as a new dealer XYZ and restarting the same activities. On the other hand you will always have people who will speak in their favor and don't understand the maesures that are taken against them, since you'll always have people that will be satisified by their services. On the point of - Bad dealer or dealer/scammer (whatever you want to call it - you will leave it to every member to take whatever action they think is justified against them, or to spend their money with them. But as always I will accept every consensus from the forum. Please also make sure that I indeed you take harsch measurmement against them that RWI and TRC will follow the same actions, otherwise all this is in vain and these people will continue their activities somewhere else. Just my 2 cents.

If I read your comment right, then the only option would be to vote #2

Personally, I would make a second sub section under "Dealers" eg. good dealers <-> bad dealers and also mention why they have been placed in this subsection (but at least remove the links to their sites, and have them follow the TTK posting format). I would leave it up to the individual member if they want to trade with them, and get what they deserve et that time. If you would ban them they will eventually show up again under different names, as a new dealer, and it will be much harder to control these so called new dealers than what you have right now. Better to live with the known dealers, than have to be wondering each time "should this new dealer be one of the 4 that was banned before" Just my 2 cents

Hi all, After getting this far, I would like to add my comments on this rather strange behaviour of our "trusted" 4 cartel dealers. Since these 4 are all well known on all replica forums RWG, RWI and TRC, a reason more not to have this discussion only on RWG but include the other forums as well (myself I started reading this threat from TRC), since some newbies stick to one forum and not necessarily read the others. I find their behaviour unacepptable in misleading all kind of members (from noobs to veterans), and trying to gain a much higher and hugher profit in selling crap reps by stating that it contains high quality movements. (There is no excuse in justifying their behaviour, Not even the "Master" did impress me, bacause if they had the power they would sa NO, this is not what we want, change it again.) As for the cartel business, it has been proven (read the email that has been send) and it can only be regretted that this has happend, this is not the open atmosphere that should be on a forum like this where collecting replicas is a hobby for most of us, and not a very nice way in getting more dollars out of our pockert of members by getting this organised. But the other side of the medal is that they need us as their customers, because without us they will not make any money, Banning them (permanent or even for a short while) as they asked to do with others in order to keep their business going, is not an issue because they will come up under a different form (another alias, another guy, who knows,..). At least for me I have made up my mind. I hate being lied to, I don't mind paying a bit more if the quality represented is what I'm going to get. So from now on these 4 so called "truted dealers" will no longer get my undevided attention and my purchase orders for new replicas. This will now go to those that upkep the spirit of free replica handling. To my humble experience I hope this is the end, and not the starting of another hunt because we need our dealers, otherwise their would be no need for forums like these.
