I discussed buying an item from AL7F last December. Due to him traveling during the holidays we decided it was best to wait until January to complete the transaction. Communication was always excellent and when Mike arrived at his Arizona residence after New Years Day I paid for the item and it was ...

I noticed Terry, N6AJ's QTH ad so I wrote that I wanted to purchase the item. Terry responded in less than 30 minutes and the deal was complete. It was shipped on the following day and tracking information was immediately emailed. Communication was excellent and best of all the item arrived in new c...

I recently purchased an item from NJ0F. This was my second transaction with Andre, the first was many years ago when he lived in TX. Back then he was KR5DX and I sold him a large item which he picked up at my home. We have kept in close contact ever since. When I saw his recent QTH ad listing a rota...

I have had several transactions with W8ZO, one was way back when ham items were sold in the "Yellow Sheets". Paul is an honorable person and indeed a please to deal with.

I purchased an item that Bob, W2HK listed for sale on this site. Communication was excellent both before and after the sale. He did a fantastic job of packaging using a generous amount of Styrofoam and double boxes. I am extremely happy with the purchase and I would definitely buy from Bob again!. 7...

I purchased a rotator controller that Verne - W8BLA had advertised on this site. After seeing the ad, I emailed a question and within four minutes I had a response. I made an offer, he agreed and I paid with PayPal. This all transpired very quickly and Verne shipped the item that same day. The contr...

Wayne, BB5WT also replied to my WTB ad, stating "i have one up for sell" The callsign is Chinese but the email originated in Kentucky and the grammar is poor. I made KA9FOX aware of this scammer so hopefully he does not bother anyone else.

George Wellborn Jr - WB5XX had an Elecraft factory built KPA500 listed for sale on this site. The ad stated that there were no scratches or dents and that he was the only owner. I replied asking the age of the amp and if he would take PayPal. He quickly responded stating the amp was a year old and t...

I purchased a keyer from Dave, K3DCW. I paid using PayPal and the box was shipped that same day. The item was properly packaged with bubble wrap and it arrived in perfect physical and electrical condition. Communication was excellent both before and after the sale. I would not hesitate to do busines...

I agree. I recently saw an amp for sale and the seller would not accept PayPal, only wire transfer. We agreed on a price but I walked away from the deal because of the payment option and later bought one from someone that did accept PayPal. Yes PayPal is expensive, but it is well worth the protectio...

K8ODH is a club callsign.

Brent, AD7VF contacted me about an item that I had for sale. He made an offer which I agreed to. Brent quickly paid by PayPal and I shipped the package. When he received it he was very pleased with the packaging and condition of the item and surprised me by sending me another $20. AD7VF is a class a...

I recently had two Yaesu transceivers for sale on QTH.com. Shortly after placing the ad, John - N2XD contacted me wanting to purchase both of them. He was unable to pick them up until the following week and we agreed on the terms. I removed the ads and a week later he emailed me to make the transact...

I purchased several Inrad filters from Adam on eBay. The transaction went perfectly, he is definitely a class act.

I purchased an antenna that Tom, K8WDX had advertised on QTH.com. He is a very nice guy and the antenna was exactly as described. The transaction went perfectly.

Is this the same Ralph Vega? https://www.wepay.com/donations/1994 Hello, my father Ralph Vega has worked for 70 years many years two jobs a day, but sadly has no savings and his medical insurance he worked for 30 years + to get WILL NOT cover a home health nurse and Medicare of course will not cover...

According to the rules this entire thread should be delete since Rowland Hghts Radio Club was not the buyer.

I thought that the purpose of feedback forum is indicate who are good and bad people to do business with. W5RIM's post is very vague. It does not say what item he sold or what the buyer's callsign is. He did list the buyers name as Ralphy Vegas which I cannot find in the FCC database. What is the bu...

qrz.com does not list any ham with the name Ralphy Vegas or Ralph Vegas.

I can't file a dispute with PayPal as I was asked to enter the transaction as a "gift". I don't think that it is ever a good idea to purchase something and mark your payment as a gift. I would be very concerned about doing business with someone requesting that I send payment this way. You have no p...

In March W6HFS changed his callsign to AA7DP

Ten years ago I had a very similar experience with UPS. I purchased an item no longer in production from a fellow ham and it was delivered to a house about a mile away. The seller had the correct address however just dropped it off at the wrong house. I am not sure how they later determined what add...

Its very strange that KD5UDE has not paid you from Three months. Have you contacted with the KD5UDE authority about this this problem in this three months? If not, you should immediately contact with them. AA2OJ started a second thread regarding this matter http://chat.qth.com/viewtopic.php?t=11172

Would you buy from him again?

K4ICL wrote:Why do you assume he was dishonest?

You said "Because the unit was sold as being in EXCELLENT condition, and wasn't, I requested a refund from the seller, who refused"

Why would you need to file a PayPal dispute with an honest seller?.
