"Joe Analssandrini" wrote in message oups.com... Dear Chris, Piece of advice based on many, many years of experience: DON'T BUY USED! Repeat: DON'T BUY USED! Why is the seller getting rid of the unit? NOT BECAUSE HE LIKES IT! It is ALWAYS better to buy a relatively inexpensive NEW item rather than some dude's cast-off finery! I have no experience with the Ten-Tec RX-320D. However it does get a very nice review in the new PASSPORT, which I recommend you buy if you haven't already. Best, Joe You convinced me. Ok everybody, lets throw all the used radios in the trash. -- 73 and good DXing. Brian ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ A lot of radios and 100' of rusty wire!

Dear Brian,
There's nothing wrong with someone trying to sell an unwanted radio (or any other unwanted item). eBay and similar places are excellent for collectors trying to buy a missing piece of their collection, or for a person who wants to re-buy a radio he/she had years ago. But a person looking to buy a primary receiver for daily use should, in my opinion, ALWAYS buy NEW, even if the new unit is of a somewhat lesser "caliber" than a used unit. A reputable dealer will offer a US warranty and will show interest in your satisfaction with your purchase. "The bitterness of poor quality lasts far longer than the sweetness of low price." Best, Joe P.S. Why WOULD you sell a perfectly good radio? I have never sold ANY of mine. I wouldn't even CONSIDER selling a poorly-performing or broken unit. I have, indeed, thrown them out! |

I wouldn't even CONSIDER selling a poorly-performing or broken unit. I have, indeed, thrown them out! That's because you obviously don't have the knowledge to repair them or your foolish. -- 73 and good DXing. Brian ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ A lot of radios and 100' of rusty wire!
