[R-390] Wanted R390A

[Dave MAyfield]

I got to chime in on this one too.

We all like a bargain, me for sure. I have at least one R-390A I'm going 
to sell sometime soon. And yes I will put it on e-pay. Why not? Why 
should I sell it to someone for say $400.00 when I can put it on e-pay 
and get $700.00 Would not make much sense now would it.

Gary would you sell me your car for 1/3 less than you can get someplace 
else? I don't think so. It's called a FREE MARKET system
