If I knew how to add a picture here in the forum I would have done so here.
Sorry if this disturbs everyone trying to prove I sent the item in question.
And FYI our local postal clerk indicated to me that you must call in the numbers they are not available online!!!

We are all spoiled (myself included) using Fedex and UPS tracking numbers.
The USPS Priority Mail offers a "Delivery Confirmation" but thats NOT THE SAME as a tracking number. Sometimes the Delivery Confirmation number shows up on the internet before the shipment is delivered...sometimes not.

This is my 2 cents worth.... I think this deal got out of hand somehow and no bad intentions by either party were initially intended.
I have traded and bought from Steve, KD6RHR many, many times and never a glitch. I have talked with him on the phone many times as well. A real gentleman.
I'm sure Frank, FPG is a good guy too.
Calm down boys! Life is too short.
Radio recieved but amp is dead

Well I finally got the radio but I don't believe this was an honest mistake due to the extensive visible arcing and damage to this amp.Only 2 of the 4 tubes lit up and have lost vacuum.He took the cover off to pack the tubes with styrofoam in case they fell out and the band switch ,choke and,coils and relays were burnt
bad with a 3 inch round mark under the top cover that looked like a spark plug wire had been arcing for a few years if U know what I mean.It's the principal of the thing I offered to pay for shipping the amp back as well as the shipping for my radio and tuner but he must have been desperate to get out from under the amp and would not send my stuff back.I have pictures and cancelled check for proof if anyone would like to see.It's a dead issue now but I never scammed anyone and the radio and tuner I sent him were in new condition.
