How about a ranking system? CNET, EBAY and others post customer feedback
good and bad to the site for review.
If the "site" is doing an analysis there should be some objective analysis
based upon fixed criteria for each vendor (delivery time, return policy,
problem resolution etc) then the liability issue should not be a problem..
Ranking them by crooks, cheats and liars, even if they, is what will lead to
trouble.
We can consider a listing of preferred vendors based upon list feed back
(advertising$$).
If this is something that we wan to persue for the site I will volunteer to
do a deeper look into some type of listing by "unfavorable" of something
similar.

still valid and if the lawyers can be kept off our backs, I am all for
it. But it could be a risky path to walk.
