It occurs to me that a friend, a true friend, would understand if I told them that attaching my handle, and thereby by reputaion, to their prices makes me uncomfortable for whatever reason so I can not in good concience do it. Clearly those who post F/S threads for friends are either not concerned with this or do not feel that their friend's pricing is out of line.

Agreed, if I had a friend say $500 a box for BHK 54's (easily a $10 a stick markup, if not $15-$20) I wouldn't post it for them. Simple as that.
Makes me think people abuse and lie about this "for a friend" crap.
Again I don't care I won't buy it, but grow a pair and admit you just want to buy BHK's at low prices and gouge people for a profit.
I see this happen all too much. BHK's have been around for what barely a year and people are selling TONS of intact boxes. All of them are saying they "bought too much". It's bullshit, no one wants to be labeled a profiteer and scumbag but they do the same things as people put on that list.
It's always 2 5'ers or intact boxes....I have never personally have seen a 7/10 box or partial boxes. Makes me think people are abusing the price fluctuations to profit from this.
