Phunny.

You can't even get my bipolar illness correct. I'm not delusional OR
paranoid like the T.P. monger who thinks he's so PHUNNY.

Your caps didn't reform.

Just want the ones on e-bay

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...ategory=46 73

and

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...tegory=15 051

Lets see. The 2nd listed one on ePay has no bottom plate, has a real rust
problem along with corrosion, needs servicing, has at least one extra hole
drilled into it and you can buy it now for only $400.00!!!! Where do I get on
the line of nuts to buy this particular question mark.... I've got a really
nice, all original SX28A that works just fine on all bands, no extra holes, no
rust, no mods, no corrosion AND it comes with the VERY RARE bass reflex speaker
(R-12) speaker. Must be worth at least $1500.00....... How silly is this
getting????

Well, ya don't often see a BuyItNow price that has any relation to
reality...except for the guy who nabbed a nice, working Zenith TO the
other day for $20 BIN. The listing lasted 6 minutes :-)

I sold one of my SX-28As for a little over $1500 on Ebay two years ago. My
reserve was anout $550 but the auction kept going. It was nice and some
people can afford it. Wanna guess who won the auction.

keep in mind about 70% of all ebay sellers are WOMEN! They dont have a clue
about some things, notably radios, and , are more likely to just say
whatever they feel.... based in fact or not. To them, or any guy who is not
seriously into radio, that is a RARE radio! And, in fact, you could go to
about 2000 garage sales and not find one...which is their basis for reality.
so, cut these folks some slack. We are into this stuff DEEP, so to us its
common. Well, not exactly common, anymore, anyway. I go to about 8 swaps a
year, most antique radio , some ham, and I have not seen one in the last
year or so for sale...so, its not as common as you think. but, like I said,
consider the sellers are not as "into" this as we are, and yeah, they are
hoping to get the best $ they can, who isnt? Not you? I bet you always try
to make your items sound good when (or if) you ever sell. We all do, its
natural.
But, I dont lie... and, saying its "rare" is technically a lie, but like I
said, in their world it is... and, in ours, its becoming true too....except
if you look at all the other SX-28's on eBay... and, how many are there?

Why would someone that obviously knows about radios and collects them make
a bull**** statement like this? Everybody knows the SX-28 was one of the
most mass produced receivers of that era and are still plentiful. It
****es
me off when people that claim to be collector or lover of the radio hobby
exaggerate or lie to make an extra buck on a radio. Yes I'm speaking of a
certain place people auction radios. People like this won't get my buck.

If they are so "COMMON" then everyone who wanted one
probably already has several, so they should go for very
cheap then, right?

LOL

They made a bloody CD manual, didn't they? If there were say, 5, just to
throw a number to the lions, would YOU make one?

From boatanchors, eh? Or just crossposting to make a mess?

Next post I'll chop all others out.
