This is a follow-up to the thread that John, aka axwelder, brought forward a few weeks back.
 
directdrill & I had agreed to swap my RipR for his Taboo.  After a few pics of each ball were exchanged, we both sent the balls on their way.  As many of you now know, the ball that directdrill sent took an interesting path to get to my doorstep as it landed on axwelder's home first.  Don't ask us, ultimately, how it got there.  Safe to say that there were numerous UPS screw-ups during this transaction that cannot or will not ever be explained.  Bottom line?  John(axwelder) and Terry(directdrill) went ABOVE & BEYOND what I would have expected from each of them.  Why, you might ask?  Because they're good people.  The kind of people that far too often get overlooked when we hear about online scams or piss-poor communication during a trade/sale/purchase.  I'm very pleased that these two were involved in this ordeal and hope that ALL of us here can take solace in the honesty that both of them displayed to make things right.  Bravo.  Bravo, indeed.
