Would he be a "dealer?"

I posted a warning, but I was wondering, am I correct in thinking he is a "dealer?"

43 of one video card is a LOT! A couple is acceptable, but not this many!

Edit -
I took out my warning

Tough call on this one. Personally, I would have dealt with the matter via PM. Send a PM to the Mod on duty and pass it along to them. While it's great to get the word out to the rest of us, thread crappin' is bad ju-ju. You rarely see a "good" threadicus deficatius (can't remember the latin).

The part of the "Dealer Rule" that I wouldn't quite jive with is the having "the sole intent of bringing them here to resell." From the initial look of things, he's replacing a big ol' number of video cards and wants to liquidate the ones he had before. In that regard, I wouldn't have a problem with him selling the things here.

Definitely a dealer IMHO. He specifically states that he is running an Internet cafe and were purchased for use in the machines there, and prefers to sell them in bulk.
Not an independent trader in my mind.

Well, I edited my post out of the thread.

I'll let the Mods decide in here.

I am quite new at this, but IMO, he is a dealer.

He's not a dealer any more than an IT manager that upgrades the HDs in all the machines in a department and sells them here. He runs a business that is *not* a reselling business.

Geoff hit the nail on the head. I have done lot's of machine upgrades and then sold the parts I upgraded here. But I am not a dealer. I don't buy parts from a distributor and then try to offload them here. And I don't think he is either.

Not to mention, getting 43 Voodoo4 cards anymore might be getting tough since none are being made anymore.

We have looked in to it, and made the decision that he is not a dealer. Of course, if he comes back next week with 43 hard drives, CPUs, etc., we may have to reevaluate that position.
