| Caveat Emptor
As a fairly new member of BrickLink, I would like to chime in on this debate.
Even as a newbie, I check the feedback of sellers before I order. If something
looks at all dodgy, I steered clear. Even for small purchases.
Obviously, a scam store is a problem for the whole site. But the idea that someone
needs to protect buyers, especially newbies, from such stores by rather extreme
means seems a bit unnecessary.
While I understand the idea...stop a newbie from being scammed and therefore
spreading a bad opinion of the site...I think that a certain about of responsibility
falls on said buyers to make sure the store from which they are purchasing is
legit. Especially if they are about to shell out a significant amount of money.
Let the buyer beware until an Admin shuts it down.
