Re: Ochre radio delete plate

I'm glad Lolife99 got what he needed. But for future reference, it's actually not cool at all to play tag team on parts like this. You see the part, you send your buddy, and hope he sees it and responds in the thread before one of all your "other buddies" claims it. This worked out fine because there were no other responses to muddy it up. Because saying you are getting in line for someone else does not equate to saying you will take it, there's really no point in it. The next member can come along and claim it.

I consider both of you my friends and don't want to piss anyone off. What I do want is for you to take a look at the big picture, put yourself in the position of the others, so you can see what's right. It's cool to be looking out for fellow members on parts you know they need, but hoping in and holding up a sale for someone else isn't. I've seen where that other buddy came to the thread and didn't buy the part, too.
