lou... you did good warning the ham community. please note my post in the feedback forum. 73 paul w8jn Then why did you call his comments 'pitiful" and claimed he was 'whining'? Why the change of heart? What about some compassion for a fellow ham who was screwed by another ham selling junk that was...

lou, you ignored every red flag ... shame on you and you deserved to be cheated. take the time to read nicks (KM5FL) note. he did it right. asked a lot of questions. dan craftily avoided the questions and nick did the smart thing... saw the red flags and walked away.. obviously dan is a c'ber selli...

KF9Z, My take on selling items in "unkonwn condition" is, that the item "should" be priced as if it is no good. This way if the buyer discovers it is in fact no good he is not out a lot of money. On the other hand the seller , if he wants to make an honest amount of money on the item "if " it is go...

Are you serious? It was purchased knowing it could be good or it could be bad - but it was explicitly sold as 'condition unknown'. You take your chances. You knew that the item may or may not work. No offense - but that silly to think that a seller who declares all known issues with a product and se...

I too, have dealt with Hector and everything was smooth. Thank you.

I have dealt with Tim on MANY occasions at Ham Fests and on-line. He is a stand-up guy - based on my transactions both selling and buying. He is willing to work with you if something is wrong and I would not hesitate buying from or selling to Tim. I am sorry to hear you were taken. At least it was n...

I received an email form John, WX4O, with the exact date he purchased the TenTec Argonaut V as 2/29/08. Guessing that by the time it was shipped and the delivery transit time, it was probably a week before he received it. So when John advertized the radio on eHam it was a month old. By the time Joh...

I am SICK of this crap where people run to the same, tired line of 'the courts do not take kindly to to xyz... and blah, blah, blah'. He does NOT owe anyone an apology. You could have just as easily looked at the label instead you chose to 'guess' at the age or represent the age as the time you owne...

I do not recall a contractual agreement with pay pal saying i could not pass on my fee to the seller but do recall it being against E Bay policy. But even E Bay does not enforce it seems like unless there is a complaint.As for Dr.Bruce Felder K3BF i do not recall him being offered a apology untill ...

PAYPAL is a convenience for the BUYER to get his item shipped right away without waiting for the check to arrive and clear or have the hassle of going to the post office to get a money order. I as the seller will wait till the payment clears, so if you want it shipped sooner, then overnight me a po...

i know exactly what you meant. anyone dealing with a grieving widow can take advantage of them, give them pennies on the dollar and turn the equipment around for big dollars. how often do you see "crooks" advertise "estate items, no way to test" and it turns out they are selling garbage? dave did n...

i never said its ok to misrepresent anything.i only spoke to the issue of daves honesty with me. sorry you feel it necessary to name call to defend your position. When did reading and comprehension go out the window? WHEN did I call you a JERK or name call? I DID NOT (re-read) call you a jerk. I me...

Maybe the PS was his and that would be the difference in condition (not SK but his personally). The fact is clear and simple - it would seem he did not describe the condition correctly and will not make good on the transaction. We have two sides to the story but only one from the buyer (as the selle...

KF9Z: I was kind of wondering how this could be turned into a no code thread, and I just found out how. :roll: Cheers Don VE3GNX I was not turning it into a code versus no-code. That thought NEVER crossed my mind. I hold NOTHING against anyone who has an Extra and did not learn code. It is not thei...

:?: Grow up an stop posting the same thing over an over again,sounds like cb ers crying so grow up an if you need some one to cry to here is a phone number1-800-279-222 1-800-cry-baby I am not sure anyone is whining other than DereK regarding his e-mail address being posted. I do not know why you f...

What I did was ''whining' when I objected to my email address being made public, which isn't the same as it being accessible to those who have enough information, the interest, and the desire, to take the necessary trouble to find out what it is. (Along these lines, you might consider why your emai...

Add me to the list of people who will not buy from DereK as that behavior is not acceptable. People loose sight of the fact that a real person is on the other end of the e-mail and I read nothing that would warrant that response - and for the record I cannot see any reason to respond like that. I WA...

Egberto is a great seller. We spoke on the phone regarding the tuner and he made me feel at ease with the transaction. The condition was even better than described! This is a ham you can trust - from my experience!

Thank you OM es Darren

Wrong - FedEx GROUND is NOT subbed out to local contractors.

Ed, Well put. I agree that no malice was intended by either party but referring to someone as a scammer and threatening to call his boss and accuse him of fraud is a bit extreme based on the facts presented. I did not gather form anything posted that Carl wanted the radio sent before payment was rec...

FedEx is much better than USPS or UPS. Open an account and save even more.

I debated even getting involved in this post. I should bite my tongue and let it be. I am sure this will put me on someone's or many others, crap-list - but here goes. You should have read what was said before some of the horrible remarks about our Northern brethren were 'edited' or removed. It sick...

Just to add to this i recently sold a radio with no warranty offered and believing it was in top condition when sold. The buyer when he recieved the radio said there was no transmit and i immediately refunded his money, as when i checked radio before shipping it was transmitting and even tho there ...
