Default If you ever sell a radio on ebay, then read this

Dear Mike,

I agree with you - this person's tactics are something less than honest
or even fair. However, let me play "devil's advocate" for just a
moment.

Suppose he were to outbid everyone else and offer a seller a much
higher price than anyone else would. Wouldn't it be in the seller's own
interest to let this man buy the radio (assuming he pays properly)?

Then, what "RadioMart" does with the radio is of no consequence to the
original seller. After all, haven't we all traded in a car, perhaps not
revealing "all" about it (so that the dealer would give us a higher
price)? Then what the used-car dealer does with that car is of no
consequence to us. (And we all know about "used-car" dealers!)

Basically, what I am saying is of most importance to the persons who
BUY from "Radio-Mart:" Caveat emptor. (This applies to ANYONE buying a
"used" product from anyone and even applies to people buying NEW
products. After all, I have NEVER seen any dealer or company stating
that "while my product is good, there are others out there cheaper and
better." ALL dealers embellesh the truth (to put it bluntly, they lie)
about what they are selling.

"Radio-Mart" has earned a rather dubious reputation on this group as
well as other ones. Let the buyer beware.

Best,

Joe

If you don't want to contribute to a radio scam, then do what I did, here's
the story:

Martyn Allison buys radios on ebay under the ID of gottahaveit1995. he then
immediately resells it as radio-mart, that in itself is NOT a big deal.
THIS IS WHAT THE BIG DEAL IS......everything he says when he sells it, is a
LIE.
I sold him some radios last year when I didn't block his account from
bidding on my stuff. he immediately relisted them saying that the person he
bought them from had taken great care of them and had to sell them due to
medical bills.....I NEVER TOLD HIM ANY OF THIS. this is highly UNETHICAL.
Like a used car salesman not disclosing the true past of a car! I have seen
him do this DOZENS OF TIMES and of course, that is just the tip of the
iceberg.

at this point GOTTAHAVEIT1995 IS ON MY BLOCKED BIDDER LIST and if you don't
want to be part of this disgusting life he leads, then I suggest you also
place his account on your blocked bidder list. if you don't want to see
someone buy your product under false pretenses, do it !

think about it.....are you for GOOD,,,,,or EVIL
