Production run positions could be traded on an open market like eBay or Craigslist or [gasp] the NYSE. Another view might be that the seller would receive emotional income by no longer having to agonize over delays, and relief that his/her deposit monies had been recovered, thus no premium charges might apply. Even if this market opened up, there might be a small number of orderers who would rather complain than either wait or dispose of their position...and they may receive emotional income from that stance. 73 k3hrn Thom,EIEIO Email, Internet, Electronic Information Officer www.baltimorehon.com/Home of the Baltimore Lexicon www.tlchost.net/hosting/ Web Hosting as low as 3.49/month ___ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.

I thought they'd be called "futures", since they're actually for a product, not a security like a bond or stock. 73 de Jim, N2EY The Crimson Personal Assurance Co..

It's like " I went to a METS, ST. LOUIS ball game at their stadium, but had no tickets. A a scalper from out of a dark alley - said " wanna buy a standing room only ticket?" I said yes, I went to the ball game, but alas, I had no real seat. So there was some inconvenience, but I did get to see the game. PS - the METS won, St. Louis'ians fans were furious. de, Fred N3CSY PS - paid a 20% premium for ticket, seemed fair Fussy? Opinionated? Impossible to please? Perfect.
