Scarlet A on his profile, perhaps?    ;D

I assume he can be banned from selling, not that this is going to really happen.

Someone designed the spinning quarter, how bout leaving his account and adding a flashing red SCAMMER under name?  Maybe then add a link to the scumbag page in his sig tag?  That way anyone who sees one of his posts will know?

Well, at the very least, "Benefactor Hermosa" and the spinning bronze coin probably shouldn't be under the name of someone who is selling fakes... because it associates them with the site rather strongly.

I would like to see the "benefactor" deleted.  It could be very confusing to newbies, thinking he was the founder or doner to create the site.  But alas, i don't want Wades job and never have.  So i'll just appreciate this site for what it is...........and i must say i do enjoy it.

Okay, so here's a rather interesting question that I'm not sure what the answer should be.

What happens to people who purchased the various "specials" that cost $60 paid to TL with an additional $60 donation to OLH?  Assuming that TL refunds them the $60 that they paid him, and they return the product, that still leaves the buyer out the $60 donation to OLH.

What then?

$60 is a small donation for a "lesson learned".  JMHO.

At they very least, they deserve the loss of that small donation. Let's call it the price of graduating from the school of hard knocks.

The Benefactor I can make go away, you guys keep referencing it with the "Hermosa", it's related to the number of posts and nothing else .  Just like the Corona Gorda currently in my name or the Robusto in yours.

Commissions are typically returned if sales are refunded, though.  I'd certainly be uneasy about keeping a commission or profiting from the sale of blatantly counterfeit/misrepresented items.

I certainly won't speak for Wade but I'd tend to think of those donations more like a service fee or rake...win or lose the house gets it's cut.  :)
