At least it was less than the new price. I've seen lots of eBay
auctions were a used item actually sells for more than the new price.

Used Price 70% or less of the New Item :
When the New Item is still in Production.

* The volume knob is super glued to the shaft.
* The control works BUT the entire shaft comes out.
* The RF Gain knob is also super glued on but will not
remove from the unit.
* The tuning encoder is working but glitchy.
It will jump frequency while tuning occassionally.
* The unit has some minor wear around the squelch control.
* There is some rubbing on the top, from setting something on it.
* No major cosmetic issues.
* Just normal wear and tear on the unit.

NOTICE - BE ADVISED : This is NOT my eBay Auction
and I am NOT Associated with the eBay Seller.

must admit, his equipment looks very clean, though.......

Radio-Mart- Does It Again !

Double (2) "Mint" Kenwood R-5000 Receiver
- - - Twice as 'Minty' as any other one out there.

Kenwood R-5000 Receiver *in Perfect MINT Condition*MINT
- - - eBay Auction Item # 250172838363
Yes he used "MINT" twice in the eBay Auction Header.

Not only is it Double (2) "Mint"
-but it is- *in Perfect Condition* )

BUT THERE IS AN OOPS !
"Addition::: When testing the receiver this afternoon,
a series of dots appeared, they went away after a
few minutes but I feel that I need to point that out."
- - - Oops it may be Double 'Minty' but will it work {DOA?}

radio-mart- how do he do it ~ RHF
.


How in the H3LL can something be "Mint-PLUS"!!!
it's either "mint" (like new, just out of the box), or it's NOT.
The guy baffles me.
I'd never buy anything from him, and have him and his "gottahaveit"
alias blocked from even bidding on my stuff I sell.
