I fail to understand why there are so many complaints about FA items. I have
bought and sold many thousands of dollars worth of equipment on E-Bay and there
is a lot more honesty and trust there than most of the individual deals in the
NG's. At least there is a reliable reporting system for all who choose to view
and use it...

So, stop your winning and enjoy our lovely free country, or better yet go buy
something on E-BAY!!!


Good day!! To all~~~

Some folks just have nothing better to do with their lives than to complain.
I know, I complain too.. but usually it's about things that actually affect
ME. I think ebay's a great place to find stuff that just isn't seen anywhere
else. Yes, I've sold stuff there, too.. but I don't advertise it in the
NG's.. I will offer the stuff here first, though, before sending it to 'the
bay'.

I don't mind the FA posts, it's the idiots who post "FOR SALE" and
then link to a eBay auction.

Well -- on e-Bay you can find items you won't find elsewhere.
Example - just bought a Zenith 1952 AM table model tube radio in excellent
condition. My folks owned this model in the 50's.
It had new capacitors, all tubes checked and replaced, several parts
replaced, and a complete alignment.
Works and sounds great.
Price $60 -- hey that's the cost of the repairs made on it !!!
My local antique radio shop had a beat up sample for $75

Another example -- for YEARS I hunted for a Kenwood grid dip meter -- found
it on E-bay -- rare bird and built like a tank - beautiful
with all coils and original box -- Price was half the cost of the new price.

Another example -- On a local golf course -- I saw a guy with a golf putter
made from Oregon myrtlewood -- great workmanship and a real golf
conversation piece-- local shops sed WHAT is myrtlewood?
Found on e-bay

Another example - my Mother in law was a WWII Navy nurse - commissioned
officer. She had only one collar insignia -- found one on e-bay, now part of
the family genealogy file. Priceless

Well you get the idea -- free enterprise at its best.
