Here's a real good one, not only do you resell the radio....you "resell" the
item description. Read carefully and have a good laugh. Here is the same
Drake R-4C, same serial number for sale some ten days later.

gottahaveit1995 buys Drake R-4C serial 28034:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...tem=5729639853

radio-mart sells Drake R-4C serial 28034:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...33429 50&rd=1

For more radio-mart fun, pull up the buying history of gottahaveit1995 by
viewing his "completed auctions" for the last 30-days, only registered eBay
members can pull up the buying history of another member. You will see all
the RME, Halli, Drake, Collins now on sale at radio-mart. Notice how the
Drake in question above goes from "this is not collector quality" to
"collector quality".....

many of his auctions are now PRIVATE, meaning only he can see the bidders

He mentions having a reserve of $650, but the auction doesn't show a
reserve.

I imagine if you contact him about reselling the radio he just bought
with a puffed up description he'll explain he has three of these radios
with the same serial number, and he's selling a different one.

Americans will buy anything if the pitch is good. Look at Ebay and the
recent presidential election for proof.
