Doesn't he misrepresent most the stuff he auctions as much higher
quality than it really is ? Bare in mind, this isn't my arguement.


I don't know if he does or not, and I'm beginning to think that most of
those complaining on this forum really don't know either.

But even if he is overdescribing his radios, he has plenty of company.
Most of us realize that sellers by their self-interest tend to
emphasize the positive and minimize the negative. Like most on this
forum I troll the Ebay auctions. If you look closely at the pictures
and ask a few pointed questions you quickly discover that the mint,
minty, rarely used, almost perfect, super clean, pristine radio has
plenty of warts. Most used radios are used.

Given the number of sellers that overdescribe their radios on Ebay I'm
at a complete loss as to why this one guy attracts the unending
attention of our resident mutual complaint society.

Come to think about it,I did once buy something from a guy in Ohio who
had some Elvis Presley notebooks for sale,the kind of notebooks you jot
notes in.The married Irish woman in England had seen them on eBay and
she asked me to buy one of the notebooks for her.I emailed the guy in
Ohio (he had provided his name and email address and snail mail address
at eBay) I bought one of the notebooks from him and I snail mailed it to
her.It was about five years ago.

I'd guess he's quite obsessive with the overstating a products quality
or just outright lies to merit such attention. As you remarked, why is
he being singled out when e-bay is ridden with sellers overstating
their product's quality.
