[Milsurplus] Harris RF-5800U-MP Falcon II Radios On E-Bay Avoid Radios and Seller

Hi Jim,
 This sounds like a scam to drive up the price. I hope you pursue this and end this guy's career on ePay. BTW, the xCEO of ePay is running for Gov. of Cal. on a Buy it Now platform. Ungh! 
 Regards,

Subject: [Milsurplus] Harris RF-5800U-MP Falcon II Radios On E-Bay Avoid Radios and Seller


Group members:

 would like to ask all members of this group to avoid the seller ocdepot.04 and 
he RF-5800U-MP Falcon II radios he is selling.

 found two listings on E-Bay a day ago for Harris RF-5800U-MP Falcon II 
ilitary manpack radios one was E-Bay item #330476467037, with antenna and 
andset in nice condition with a buy-it-now price of $849.99. I found another 
nit later with a buy-it-now price of $999.99 with similar description but 
ncluding a battery box and external accessory cable. The second one was E-Bay 
tem #330476467012. I hit the buy-it-now button for both units and paid for them 
sing PayPal. The seller ocdepot.04 accepts my payment and sends me positive 
eedback for both transactions. I was all excited about receiving my new toys! 
his afternoon I get home from work and I receive a question on the E-Bay system 
rom ocdepot.04 stating he wants to cancel the sale. A minute later I got a note 
rom Paypal indicating that ocdepot.04 had refunded my total payment. I then did 
 search on E-Bay and found that the seller had relisted the same Harris 
F-5800U-MP I had earlier won in a
new auction as 390244237417. What was interesting is that he relisted the item 
ven before he had sent me the notification that he was cancelling his earlier 
ale to me. 

n the notification E-bay sent to me where ocdepot.04 was informing me that he 
as cancelling my sale. they offered me two buttons, "agree" or " take action". 
 pressed the "take Action" button and sent him a note declining to accept his 
ancellation of the sale. E-Bay then displayed the note "dispute closed." 
nterestingly, because the seller refunded the money, the E-Bay won't allow me 
o leave negative feedback for the seller. 

f you want one of these radios, fine, go to the new auction #390244237417 and 
id for it. Don't worry, if you miss the first, there will be five more, because 
e also pulled back the completed deals back from the other customers who also 
on these radios. (Probably some of you are members of this list. If you want to 
alk to this seller, the business name is On Line Consignment Depot telephone 
umber 714-540-5832.

e, I've lost interest in this seller and his radios. If he can not honor the 
eals he makes, he does not need my business!
