Yup completely agree! I love to buy from Tom, got a lot of stuff from him.
Funny thing is, I have never met him
Half the time I just send him a PM and ask him if he has or can find something for me. Always comes through with good parts and being local makes it all the better.
But it gets even better... he is truly a generous man. He knows I am in Afghanistan and get very limited time home, he has dropped off parts to my house without charge and has honored me and my family. I am very grateful and hope to meet him soon.
Thanks Tom!
