I can’t help but chirp in here,,
I find the whole thing ridiculous when someone actually posts a good thing about me or my company how they are stripped down and attacked by the three timewasting people, making claims to the poster that they must be stupid, misled or lucky,,l let me show for example...

Martyn e-mailed me and told me what he had and the condition and he was quick to reply to question's and we made a trade everything went smooth..Radio packed well even though it was a parts radio (And i knew this)Thanks to him i am able to get my rig back on the air.I found him to be honest straight forward He even shipped before i shipped..Just don't get any better service..This is my first deal with him and i would not hesitate to deal with him again..Very nice guy in my opinion..No flameing please i am just sharing my experience with him and could care less of what others think..

I just left a positive feedback for Martyn because of my experience with him.I did not post this for him to get beat like a drum..The answer is simple if you don't like him call him and tell him or post it in your own horsebeating thread..Like i said it was my first deal with him and i was very pleased..Nuff said.He can be reached at www.radio-mart.net

After jumping the gun on Radio-Mart here is what I now know. EVERYTHING arrived in as described condition. It all works as it’s supposed to, nothing broken , nothing missing. In fact some of the items actually exceeded my expectations.
So what’s the lesson I just learned the hard way. I was totally wrong about this company and its owner and I am not too big to admit I WAS WRONG. Here’s what happened… after purchasing the HF equipment for large sum of money a few friends and many others sent me Emails warning me of possible problems. I then did a Google search and a bunch of stuff popped up negative about Radio-Mart.
Being human with all the faults that go with it I panicked. I allowed my frightened emotions over to overrule logic in this case concerned I might lose a substantial outlay of my hard earned money. After posting here on QRZ, I later on wrote the administrator asking if I could remove the thread and start a new thread where I could give this gent an honest evaluation. Since the administrator did not respond or take down the thread I am writing this as a full retraction.
In today’s Cyber driven world it’s super easy for any of us to jump to conclusions. This is America and one is innocent until proven guilty. In this case I held Radio-Mart guilty until proven innocent. Again I was wrong.
I posted in a panic what I thought was going to happen based on hear say and the information gathered from the net. We all know the net has its fair share of problems with what to believe & what not to believe.
When one is in business and does as many deals as Radio-Mart does sooner or later there will be a problem. I cannot speak for those who may or may not have had a problem with Radio-Mart in the past only with my experience so far with them has been.
I ( myself ) can find no reason not to do business with this company or its owner.
My Sincere Apologies To Radio-Mart , Larry Read aka KF6VMC

Folks, let this posting serve as a warning to all. Although an apology has been received, some damage has nonetheless been done. I'm sure you've heard the term "can't un-ring the bell" and it applies in this case.
Frankly, I'm getting very tired of this forum and am tempted to close it down entirely. This forum was meant to warn people of known scams and rip-offs so as to provide a community service. Instead it has become a he-said, she-said food fight where the kids don't seem to remember the lessons that we all learned in kindergarten.
I guess being in business always will have its highs and lows but the handful of people that have done all they can to destroy my reputaion, I hope get their payback when it comes to judgement day.
I guess it is easy to forget the 26,000 positive feedbacks I have under my accounts on eBay and not to mention the 5500 private transactions I have had this year with my new web site.
I see one really annoying twerp complaining I didnt supply a $10 power supply for his Drake yet did give him what he asked, a $10 refund, and had to deal with the BBB in a case he opened and I won and his credit card company when he tried to pull a fast one on me and I won that case too, of the 3 meadling timewasters, only one has purchased from me and I have purchased from him.
So life goes on and I am satisfied I am running a sucessful business and providing the best service to all of my customers old and new.
