Subject: [CR]Resolved, was RE: Calling Bill Roberts

Others have commented on problem transactions with Bill Roberts. I am happy to say that my own problem transaction with Bill Roberts has been resolved. After enough time had passed that one would otherwise think the transaction was lost, Bill Roberts made good and covered the expenses incurred by the previously bad payment. While no one would term the whole of this experience as a good transaction, I thought it worth noting that Bill did, after some time, uphold his end of the transaction. I've heard from others that initially it looked like buyers and sellers got stiffed, but much later parts arrived or payments came. I really don't know the full story, and remain skeptical about some explanations, but I think Bill Roberts got into a hole, and over time is now getting himself out of it. Good for him for trying and better still if he achieves it.
