Avoid KS4V Bruce Huyck

Post by kc2zxl »

On March 10th 2017, I saw a listing for Elecraft KX3 by KSV4 Bruce Huyck. He stated that the unit has a Tuner and Roofing filter plus plastic cover. In my haste, Bruce agreed to sell it for $1050. I received the transceiver today and some things did not sit well. First, no power cable, some letters were faded off the side panels, and there were scratches that did not make it into the photo he listed because he had concealed it with the plastic cover. When I asked where's the power cord and his response was that he did not mention it on the listing therefore it's not included. Ha, a simple power cord, okay with no battery option, I have to now go look for a power cord?

But what really blew my steam was that OFS knob had a big gash across it. When I confronted him over email, now he does not respond. Shameful Hammy, hope you enjoy the money Bruce. He's a shady Seller and he probably knows it too.
