[R-390] Re: R-390A on eBay. Warning!

[Tom Norris]

I emailed the guy and got a reply within an hour along with
a link to a pic of the top of the radio.  The top is as clean as
the rest of the radio and looking at the sheet metal and the
finish, the photo of the topside looks like it belongs to a late
EAC.  Is full of IERC shields too.

The guy does have a lot of negatives, apparently on his car part
auctions.  How that would relate to this auction, I dunno. Private
auctions are STILL a Red Flag for me. YMMV
