George and others -

I asked for clarification before saying anything more because there are 
always two sides to any story.  However, I did purchase a radio from 
Luis last year, and it was literally in mint condition, better than 
described, and he included a speaker and other items that weren't expected.

He did say that he doesn't have internet at home, which probably 
accounts for some delays in our communication, but I am very satisfied 
with the transaction.  I was aware that the equipment would be coming 
from Mexico, and paid a total of $100 in addition to the price of the 
radio for packing and shipping, which was via FedEx overnight service 
and I received the radio the day after it was shipped, including customs 
clearance.

I felt I should mention this, because my experience was quite different 
than yours unfortunately seems to have been. 

73, Bob W9RAN
