Only problem is it's offerd for-sale by RadioMart....
Now I ask you:
Would you buy a R-390 from that man from KY?

(I also noticed he has the VERY desirable and
in very short supply Nintendo Wii up for sale too.
Just in time for Xmas when everyone is looking for 'em.
What you think folks? Will R-M scam the general
public an get away with it, just like he's been alleged
scamming the ham radio community on e-screw?)

I see items from time to time I'd like to bid on from Radio-Mart, but
then I come to my senses. I have perfect feedback and would hate to
have it screwed up by some ebay crook.

Most of the sellers on Ebay won't give feedback to the buyer until the
buyer post positive feedback for them. If a seller shafts the buyer &
the buyer gives negative feedback the seller gives the buyer negative
for no reason other than retaliation. This screws up the whole
feedback thing. When I sell on Ebay, I give the buyer positive
feedback as soon as I receive the payment. If the buyer pays in a
reasonable time, he has done his part & deserves positive feedback.
Sometimes the sellers charge a lot for shipping junk & then offer a
refund, if the buyer returns the junk he is out shipping coming &
going. And shipping is expensive.

R-390 I see, but no R-390A... Where?

BTW - the R-390 is about where one would expect it to be, if it's in as
good of condition as claimed...

Best regards...

Ebay should revamp the feedback system where as the seller cannot
receive a feedback until he/she leaves one to the buyer first. Like Mark
said, the seller should give feedback as soon as payment has been
received as he fulfilled his obligation. The feedback would way more
honest then.

Not a good idea.

Suppose a crooked seller sends a misrepresented item to the buyer and,
knowing that there will be a complaint, simply doesn't leave any feedback
for the buyer. The buyer is then blocked from giving the seller a
well-deserved negative.

Giving immediate positive feedback to a buyer can be a mistake in case the
buyer is a crook (yes, they exist). The buyer keeps the good item that he
received, and returns a broken or damaged one and demands a refund. The
seller knows that he is being scammed, but having already given a positive
feedback, there's not much he can do. The crooked buyer gets the positive,
and the honest seller either loses his money or gets a negative.

Also not good.

It's a hoary old chestnut!
I'm both a buyer and seller on ebay.co.uk.
It is the buyer's duty to pay for the item.
It's the seller's duty to pack the item adequately, for it to be as
advertised, to pay the carrier, and to send it.
It is the carrier's duty to take it safely to the buyer in the time
appropriate for the chosen service, but this is at the seller's risk under
UK law, though recompense can, theoretically, eventually be had by the
seller.
It is the buyer's duty to receive the item, (or respond to a card which
should be left by the carrier, but isn't always, if he's out or Customs fees
need paying, and collect the item from the depot or arrange re-delivery.)
At this point, it is appropriate for the buyer to leave feedback for the
seller if the item arrived in satisfactory condition. with appropriate
(factual and reasonable) comments about the service, packing, etc. and then
for the seller to leave appropriate, factual, feedback in response.
If unhappy with the item, he should advise the seller. They should then both
try to find out what went wrong and reach a mutually agreeable solution.
Ideally, there should never be a need for reasonable people to leave, nor
receive, negative feedback.
But, yes, the whole transaction depends on the seller, carrier, and buyer
all playing their parts, and it is messy and unpleasant otherwise.

-
- Ebay favors the seller. No doubt about it.
-

1 - eBay's Business Model starts with the Seller.

2 - eBay Function's as a Seller's Auction Site/Venue.
{Clearing House for Sellers}

3 - The Service that eBay Offers Sellers is the
Consolidation of Buyers.

4 - It Is The Sellers Fees That Generate eBay's Income.

Hence on eBay - It Is Truer Then Ever - BUYER BEWARE ! ~ RHF
