You don't think it's an over-reaction, Ken?
I know what the rules for buy/sell are - I made them. I put them in place to protect the members of IIS from scammers.
I can also choose to waive them if I have enough information to know that the person is not trying to scam anyone. I've done it before where members have given me a reference from an existing forum member.
In this case, after chatting with the 76-year old retired astronomer from Mount Stromlow, I felt supremely confident he wasn't out to rip anyone off.
You made assumptions about what I did and why I did it, without knowledge of the background or any other information. If you choose to leave, then it's a complete over-reaction as far as I can see.
