KF6SPR I won't deal with him again

Post by NI5X »

He advertised a one week old FT-897. When I called he told me it was
the FT-897D model and that the txco was installed. I paid 40 more than he
was asking for overnight shipping. Two days later he shipped it by
ground. When the radio arrived, it had a strong smell of cig smoke,
serial # showed manufacture of December 2002. It is not the D model and
there is no txco installed.

Just the facts, another fact is, I don't want anyone else to be taken by him.
