My computer (the buyer) talks to their computer (the seller). It's not like I ever speak to a salesperson directly.Stagflationary Markhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04568993350246477976noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8515247115132134144.post-64634899803598229032013-09-04T00:38:06.583-07:002013-09-04T00:38:06.583-07:00Anonymous,
