[Milsurplus] Selling equipment: an OPINION

[MWM]

I agree Mike. Recently there was a sale, set, psu, cables, control box and atu, all from the same guy, all from the same set, all listed separately. 


I did suggest to the guy he pull the tubes and list those one by one. No need to guess his remarks. 


Simply MONEY, no thought for originality or such, just a greed for money. 


cheers, Ben.

Subject: [Milsurplus] Selling equipment: an OPINION


Hello all:
 I have an opinion (rant) that I would like to express here. When listing 
equipment for sale on auction sites it is my opinion that the equipment, power 
supplies,&  connecting cables should be listed as one unit. I believe it is a 
dis-service to break up these items as they become more scarce. 
Case in point; I was recently bidding on a mil surplus RCVR to go with a 
transmitter I have owned for 50 years. I was also bidding on the power supply 
the seller had listed separately. You can see where this is going...I won the 
receiver, & the other bidder won the power supply. 
I think the seller could have gleaned more money had the unit & PS been listed 
together. 
Yes, I know this is a free country, etc... flames not necessary.
