Of course, and I said nothing about it. I merely commented how for someone who likes the free flow of goods you seem to dislike free flow of information and comments.

The person whom you chose to deride and spit on might be uneducated in some aspects, but still, he wasn't impolite and merely gave his opinion and asked a question. Why was it ok for you to deride him over 3-4 posts instead of simply explaining your issue or ignoring him?

If you disagree with that, then you are about as intelligent as the person who made the ignorant post to which I previously responded.

and, you sir (who has 11 posts to your name), are mistaken.

Do you consider yourself part of this close knit community? If so, why do you have 11 posts, in 5 years? Not quite a major contributor, are you?
JSWolf has 24,144 posts and has definitely contributed to this community over the past 5 years. That was irrelevant to you when you chose to spit on him. Yet it became the only talking point when you addressed me. It is obviously a strawman you erected to continue treating people who address you politely in a bad manner, ignoring the issue of your rudeness I raised.

Now, again, stay out of the thread.
And this is exactly the reason why I commented. You don't rule here and you don't get to order who says what. You have a right to sell here, of course, but this is not your private store where you can censor everything and treat everyone badly.
So yes, I have 11 posts in 5 years. I don't talk much. But that is of my own choosing, and damned if I let people like you tell me or someone else that we are not allowed to talk or ask questions on a public forum that we care for very much.


Now, to address your actual sale, you still haven't replied to JSWolf's question:
Will you provide the buyer with the receipt?
If not, how does that affect the warranty rights the buyer has?
Also, if not, how can the buyer know that this is actually BNIB item and not a refurb from SonyStyle bought for $150?

Also, while the rarity of the PRS-950 effects its high resale price, that rarity is partly due to Sony not providing new stock because of impending refreshment of their reader lineup, predicted to occur next month. Considering those models will be an improvement over the current lineup, and that it is expected they'll have somewhat lower prices, an informed person will be less inclined to rush into this deal.

Having said that, I do hope you will get a decent sum for reselling these readers, good luck. Also, I hope you'll learn to address people in a more positive manner, even when you think they don't deserve that.
