Default Bad Buyer/Seller List Like the HAMB

Ryan, please consider adding a bad buyer/seller list like you have on the HAMB site to the Fordbarn. There are some real scam artists out there.

Go to the "classified section" of the HAMB. Down at the bottom of the page there is a sticky that has the bad buyer/sellers list.

Or maybe a sad commentary on the HAMB....? I think most guys are honest, just the few that are not are the ones that we hear about....

There's a couple on here too, I got stiffed a few times on small items here.
Just as likely to get scammed anywhere. That's just the nature of trading horses sight unseen.

The HAMB has done a very good job hunting down its bad sellers and exposing them online. Complete with as much contact information as possible, too. They can't control who signs on, but they sure get involved in who stays.
They also have helped straighten out a few bad transactions so that everyone at least got the parts and money to where it was expected.
There is a strong level of trust because of this...I have had sellers mail me the parts I wanted before we even figured out how to transmit the money.
