Queens Hi

Yes iam cathy from ft, I was told about your website by a good friend of mine, when i read all the things that you people have written about ft i could not believe it. Awilda, i can not believe you would tell such a lie if i remember right when you came into ft we would always talk, especially when you told me of your illness, and how we were going through the same thing. I remember the 155 bow sale and how you just wanted us to drop it on your front porch because you had some fireman friends that would help you get in your house,because it had to be brought the window and i told you we could not take a chance of breaking your window and you said thats why you had some friends that would help you, I also remember not charge tax and only $50.00 for del. because i thought we where friends.as for the man selling corals in front of ft you should tell the truth you where not swapping since you where the only one with the cooler, and recieving the money, all i asked is that you not sell in front of the store,thats like me selling tv in front of pc richards they would call the cops i chose to ask nicely you where the one who called me a fat white bit!if that is not racist then what do you call that as for all you others like the man who said i use to flirt with him till i found out his girl was asian, are you kidding me iam happily married for 19 years.. I am sorry for you people who only like to hear one side of the story and believe it all i can say if the truth hurts what can i say , as for the people who think i was going under the name catfish i really hope you dont think iam that stuipd to use my name did you ever think it was some one making you people think that it was me! i hope this post reaches all of you who think you know what really happened on sat. the man was selling frags in front of ft not a few doors down and when asked to please do it some where else if said fy there are always to side to a story yours mine and truth yes there where people who heard the truth !!!! what u choose to believe is up to you thank you cathy

I think you misunderstand something. If I want to give something to someone or sell it to them I can do it wherever I want to as long as the item is legal you can't say anything about it unless it is in your store. The street out front isn't your property, it's OUR property. The words you use are derogatory and disrespectful modes of address and you get called on it then you play Snow White being victimized by the Witch holding the apple? Come on we're all smarter than that. You have had nothing good to say about this club and it is stupid to alienate a 3000 member plus part of your customer base.

Oh BTW selling a TV from one person to another in front of PC Richard and calling the Police.......... use a better example next time been there done that nothing the police can do.

We know who the evil Witch and Snow White really are here at MR. You unfortunately don't.

Did you forget your other user name Catfish1, or just the password?

In this case there are several sides with the same experience, and your little BOO-HOO post shows us nothing. I think you need to change our thinking and mentality and show people here that you are willing to work with us and maybe people will believe you in the future, it's highly doubtful but miracles do happen.

All the horrible, unforgivable nastiness aside, don't you realize that if I arrange to meet X to exchange some frags in front of your store that I and X are extremely likely to enter the store and thus are far more likely to buy something as we are actually in the store at all? Why do you think "we" chose this location to meet in the first place? Wouldn't you rather have me come inside even if I just bought some frags from a fellow hobbyist? As the owner of a niche business, you don't seem to understand your customer base very well at all.

Agreed Here. I have met other members there myself, done my dealings and have walk into the store and spent over $300.00. I was just there the other day and spent $160.00...
