Fw: [Hallicrafters] Re FPM-200 Offered For Sale

[Duane Fischer, W8DBF]

Randy is so correct. 	

	Last year I sold three pieces of equipment. Only one of the buyers paid me!
After five months, a second one came through. The third one never did.	
	
Now the evil place being run by computers, not people, charged me for the sale
of the third item, which never sold. I spent six months trying to resolve this
with the evil place. The result? Send us the money, and then we will issue you a
credit! I said no way was I going to send them money for a transaction that did
not happen. They suspended my account. 	
	
I happened to have an internal contact there, so finally i contacted him and
asked him to kick the issue to a person higher up that could resolve this. He
did. It was settled by phone in five minutes. But you can not talk to them by
phone, just by e-mail. 	
	
I was eventually reinstated and the evil place even gave me a credit as an
apology. So, sellers beware! How do you want the shaft; phillips, regular or hex
head? (grin)

You assume, of course, that he auctions the radio without incident. There
are deadbeat bidders as well as the guy who, after receiving the radio,
complains that it was not as advertised and wants a full refund (including
shipping). Then, the radio is returned but, looks like it was in a house
fire and run over by a semi (see earlier posts concerning the shipping of
boatanchors).

I think I'll watch.
