The vast majority of the vendors here seem to have absolutely no problem with the Seller's Guide. It is not "more of a guide, not a contract" - point 5 of the Seller contract (out of only 7 points in total) explicitly states: Therefore, it can be presumed without doubt that the passages set out in the Seller's Guide are considered an intrinsic part of the Seller contract. Allowing vendors to create rules to govern themselves is a ridiculous suggestion. Finalising Early would be enforced by the majority of vendors, they would allow themselves to keep buyer details and addresses, and would allow themselves to list items that are restricted (such as counterfeit currency, stolen goods, child pornography, items whose purpose it is to defraud etc.), completely going against the spirit and wishes of the community. Vendors are not the most important members here - they are on equal footing with buyers; one is not superior to the other, nor will they be permitted to be. Libertas
