I was speaking with Joe in the spring.  I was going to buy a 28ASR from him.  He was having back problems and was going to the VA hospital. He wasn't sure what they were going to do - ? maybe surgery 

Then suddenly he disappeared.  I have his phone number for his home and florida place - nobody ever answers.  I haven't called the numbers since the spring.  

Doesn't sound good
