Default Latest RADIOMART ebay scam!!!

I agree with all negative comments regarding RadioMart, but I think most
people in the hobby already know about him and have him filtered out of
their eBay searches. He caters to the newbies.

However, I disagree that eBay is a bad place to buy gear. It is definitely
the largest collection of radio and related equipment available, and with
careful buying it is possible to avoid being taken. I have had a few
attempts to rip me off, but Paypal is your best friend when it comes to
getting your money back. EBay knows it can't afford to alienate buyers with
a bad reputation and so it protects sellers pretty well. And the nice thing
about eBay is that if a particular seller seems shady or uncooperative, just
walk away. Another one just like it will always come up.

Check this BS out! Amazing that this jerk continues to sell on Ebay with
his obvious lies and misrepresentation. This is nothing more than a poor
homebrew fake. I know who made it and he made a few more out of surplus
items. RADIOMART's stories are totally made up. He has no personal
collections, he swindles SK widows and runs another ebay name to buy on

the
cheap and then makes up stories about the same equipment to lend
credibility. This guy is a snake. BEWARE!!!!!




There's one born every minute. (Especially on E-Screw!)
Anyone who would buy ham gear on e-Bay deserves to be taken.
