As I have mentioned in other Lists, I went to his, er, house to pick up a  
piece of gear a couple of years ago when I still lived in Central Ky.
 
He always states "from my personal collection". His 'shack' is a room about  
6' X 10' with a ratty plywood operating table. He had about 4 radios in it. 
His  'antenna farm' was a dipole about 15' above ground. He sold me a 
Transverter for  my 901DM.
(I have had a couple of the complete 901 stations in the past and lacked  
only the Transverter to complete my most recent 901 station).
 
He 'guaranteed' it worked and supplied me with the WORST looking  
interconnecting cable I have ever seen. No big deal, I could redo it. The3 radio  was 
well packed away for my impending move to Florida. I got the 901  unpacked about 
a year later, and the cable didn't even go to the 901! Looked  like a Swan 
connector. Too late to leave feedback...... Did the Transverter  work? Heck, 
NO!!!! Dead as a rock!
 
As you are probably aware, he has an alias. Can't remember the name, and  the 
location is listed as Louisville, KY.
Since his high bidders are 'hidden', what do you want to bet he bids  against 
himself?
 
Here's an example: I was high bidder on a FRG-7 he had. There were 12  
'other' bidders. I realized that the "MINT", "LIKE NEW" one he was selling, was  the 
early model without the fine tuning. I agreed to pay him $50 to NOT send me  
the radio, since I was going to return it under his "guarantee"anyway, since I 
 would not have been happy with it.
Since the next higest bidder was $.99 less than me, you would have thought  
he would have offered it to the other bidders. I have done this many times in  
the past.
Nope, he relisted it.
 
I have known him since 1999. He has had other IDs. (Multicom2000, etc).  Once 
his feedback gets really bad, he just starts over. He has buddies back in  
his home country of England, and they send each other radios all the time. 
 
NEVER buy a radio from him listed as "New, in the box". Guaranteed  to be a 
return/refurb.
Seen them, been there.
 
 
Still, I cannot figure out where he keeps coming up with all the Collins  
equipment! That has me puzzled.
