Well tom, you know what they say -
No good deed goes unpunished!
It is not usually the subject or basic content of the e-mails that I get
that I am amazed by, it is the rude tone. A polite e-mail suggesting
that a price is out of line one thing, a negative toned e-mail that
suggest one is ripping someone off by asking to much is another thing of
course.
