Sorry, if my money in every other form that isn't PreyPal isn't good enough then I am not good enough. No deal. This is exactly what caused me to leave the 'A' website a year ago.

That is what I am hoping. I tried check, money order, cahsier's check, major credit card, gold, silver, etc., etc., etc. with the other website and all was refused except for PreyPal.

No problems. We'll take whatever. Send me a PM and I'll forward you an address to mail the cheque too. Doesn't have to be a money order or cashier's cheque - personal cheque is fine.
We draw the line at chickens or heads of cabbage though.

Re: For sales section without restrictions: I doubt Curt will ever allow this since it is his main business. You can ask him though... but I bet I know the answer.
Re: No word filters: [Edit] Done! Club Members can now turn off the word filter.
Re: Service Manuals: I'm working on breaking down Curt on the subject of posting service manuals.... So far it's only older ES focusing models that he's allowing me to put online (Barco 400/600/800/801, Sony 125x127x, NEC PG, etc.). These manuals are for everyone however. Not just Club Members. I have a whole pile of s/manuals for newer PJ's just waiting in the wings... Note however that Curt didn't give these to me. These are all manuals I've found myself on the internet for free. In fact, out of the 453 technical documents on the website, only one was provided by Curt, and a few (5 or 10) provided by other forum members. So if you want a s/manual, it's most likely out there already. Problem is finding it - which is why I'd like to get them all in one spot ...
