Here's what I got allegedly from Harry Stowe VE3HXA: "Thanks for your email..find attached pictures below..There is no dent
or scratch on it.. Look perfectly clean and excellent.. it work great
and work like a dream.. if still interested,Let me know how much you

I got the same email from "VE3HXA Harry B Stowe" on July 7, including photos of the rig I posted Wanted To Buy, lifted exactly from an ebay sale a few months ago. Do your homework, there were other warning signs too. Is VE3HXA a silent key? I'm sure he would like to know about this.
