[Boatanchors] eBay and HAMMARLUND HC-10 Prices

[Carl Nord]

I agree. EBay has its place and has served a need. I have added things to my
collection I thought I would never see. I have never paid more than I wanted
to at the time, and sold items I did not care for a great profit ($400 for a
telegraph key). and everyone was happy. As both a buyer and seller I don't
understand the gut reaction some people have. I've been screwed more at ham
fests  (Oh it works fine!)  than Ebay

Thanks Carl and Robert.  Why degrade yourself by side-stepping A site that
has been responsible for for satisfying millions and filling holes in
collections, definitely bringing income to those who need it that otherwise
might not ever sell or find a buyer.  I know Ebay saved my bacon and filled
a critical gap when the local retail market started collasping in the 90's
and permitted me to sustain my business.  I have nothing but praise for Ebay
and PAYPAL as it is cheaper that other methods.  There are always "HORROR
STORIES", but then all of life has risks.  CAUTION is the WORD in all
endeavors.

Whine, whine whine.
