They ripped me off! Maybe I could have gotten things straitened out but they
make it a living hell. TG

I have a Radio Shack Pro-96 Serial #C012995 Catalog # 20-526 that I wish
to
sell. It is in pristine condition and complete working order. I've
decided
I
don't need the digital capability in my area for the things I listen
too,
it
was mostly an impulse gadget purchase! Used a total of a few hours. Your
gain. Monitors the Michigan State Police very nicely at 9600 in my area!
This radio is just starting to show up in stores, why wait, you can have
one
now and save a few bucks!

Here is what is included and it's original value:
$499.99 + tax Pro-96 with all the original items it came with (Unit,
Antenna, 2 battery cartridges, manuals and original packaging)
$5 Fresh set of AA Alkaline batteries
$30 Win96 programming software (fully registered and
transferrable)
$15 2-way programming cable
$0 Slip showing date purchased and amount (for warranty)
---------------------------------------------------------------------
$580 Total paid with tax

Im asking $520 firm + $10 (USD) Shipping and insurance to Continental US
(more to Alaska and Hawaii). I will accept US Postal Money Order or
Cashiers
Check.

Thanks,

A little common sense goes a long way...like using a seperate card with a
very low limit for paypal, then follow up on ALL transactions. The
particular card I have I call the CC company every time I use it so they
know its me. If I *don't* call them first, they are calling me within the
hour asking if I have authorized the use of the card.
Its very comforting to know that one way or the other BOTH the bank and
myself know that the card is being legitimately used.

From that site:

"Many Paypal accounts are frozen for almost anything and without warning until
the owner faxes in lengthy and intrusive private information – several times
over. Even then, the account may not be released. The account can usually
receive money while it is frozen, but it certainly cannot withdrawal money."

I'm curious - what SCHMUCK leaves his money in PayPal!? As soon as I receive
money, I transfer it over to my bank account. If I want to pay via PayPal, I
just logon and send it, without the money needing to be in the account.

Kind of reminds me of some of the crap I see in alt.consumer.experiences
from folks ****ed off cause their credit card company had the nerve to
charge them for being late with a payment.

If any of you would like more information on the PRO-96 ask at strongsignals.net

What does it matter? ... the joy of scanning is on the
way out anyway! I mean, between FCC fascism and
deliberate signal sabotage increasing every day, it's
almost a repulsive activity any more.

I also think you're asking way too much for your
*cell blocked* impulse purchase, but I always get kick
out of how people regard the digital platform as some
sort of "new" technology.
