[R-390] Too quiet lately! Another "BlackFaced R-390(A) Thingy"

[Craig C. Heaton]

Too All,

Just took another look at the "BlackFaced R-390(A)Thingy" on that e-place.
Still listed as "Super Rare Black Model CIA, time 4:27 PDT June 28, 2005. As
pointed out to me in another e-mail,  the first photo shown on the e-place
of this item in question is the rear. Notice the terminal strips and the
method of lettering above. Then go to Rick Mish's web site and check out his
Miltronix LS-206 A/U, the rear view. Sure looks like twins to me!

So, did Radio-Mart purchase one of these and is misrepresenting the item, or
maybe Radio-Mart is now a front man for Mish? Guess other possibilities
exist, also.

I did question Radio-Mart as to proof of past CIA ownership, he said contact
Rick Mish for better information. Will foward that e-mail to those
interested.

In any event buyer beware. A fool and his money are soon parted.

later.........craig,

I stand by what I said. This is flat dishonest. While you can argue over the
value of a used piece of equipment.
The price he is trying to get for the IC 706MKIIG is a total rip off. If he
is trying to misrepresent an refinished
R390A as a rare CIA black faced model how honest is that.  Sorry the buyer
beware argument just doesn't hack it.
