    C'mon, have a heart, folks! It's not necessarily "willing to pay",
    it's a "have no choice" situation for some of us. Here you people
    have a bazillion suppliers to choose from for wholesale only, that we
    cannot buy from, and yet you begrudge us poor hobbyists who cannot
    buy wholesale, our one really good supplier!
