According to your 'write up' though on ebay Corbin, it is just fine. What
gives? Hmmmm?

I noticed that too :~) What's he supposed to say if he wants to sell it?
LOL

It's called marketing. And I spoke no lie there either. This IS my third
radio this week, and like it or not, I am henpecked to the point that my
wife really did tell me to sell this one on eBay.

The performance I experienced with my 9700 is probably average for that
particular radio, no better, no worse. As most of you know, I have found a
couple of cheap Chinese radios that I like better -- Tecsun BCL2000 and
Degen DE1102 -- and so I am choosing to sell the 9700 and keep the other
two. Also, to be fair, my opening price was only 1 penny, with no reserve,
plus the actual shipping I would need to send a three-pound radio anywhere
in the US. If the winning bidder paid $8.01 for the radio, would that be a
problem for anyone here? Not for me. What about $10.01 or $20.01? That's up
to the bidder. I paid a total of $47.90 to get that radio shipped to me. If
I sell it for less or more than that, it won't matter. I was able to try the
radio out for myself and I quickly found out that it didn't suit my
particular needs. That puts the 9700 in the same company as the Satellit 800
and the Sony 2010. That's pretty good company for some people.

What if I lose money on the transaction? Then it was a learning experience.
What if I make money on the transaction? Then it was a learning experience
on which I made a couple of dollars. Of course, I'll use those dollars to
order another cheap radio until I find one that I want to keep.

Thanks for being so understanding.
