The cost to ship can be more than the item is worth sometimes. (large
radios)
There is much more paperwork to deal with also. Most eBay shippers I've
talked to is worth the reward.

You know what the much other paperwork is.. a little green or white form
that takes about a minute to fill out. Most ebay sellers won't ship outside
the continental US, because they won't ship USPS. FedEx and UPS are a total
ripoff once you get outside the lower 48..

Brenda I agree on that but if you want a package tracked there is no better
way to go. USPS just does not have their act together here.

BTW you must also do a bill of sale on most items for customs. We had to do
these when shipping into MX and SA even though the value was zeroed out on
our test equipment for work. This was through Fedex.

It tells me that he is going to get a good price out of the radio since
it is already at $200. Hell Dan, I would have bought it from you but I
already shot my wad on radios for a month or so.

Thanks for your support fellas, (I think)...

Someone took this honey of a scanner for $200.00 using Buy It Now...

It may have sold for more, but I let the noise coming from the baffoons her
influence my pricing.

Anyway, it's a decnt price for both seller and buyer.

AND major lessons learned for the future....

DO NOT WASTE TIME OFFERING GOOD, CLEAN, HARD TO FIND RADIOS ON USENET.

GO RIGHT TO EBAY.

I am finally convinced that the morons lurking on these groups have finally
succeeded in ruining what was a good thing years ago.

well dan ......it's more involved than just offering stuff to
the " so called " buffoons on usenet ....... and is still a good
idea to do.

first the person that bought the item with the buy-it-now .....
probably learned about it here on usenet.

secondly why on earth would someone take a chance of buying it
directly on a usenet offer when by using ebay would give the
potential buyers information about the seller and buying through
ebay will offer recourse if one has problems.

the " feed back " ratings found on ebay give the buyer some
idea of the quality of doing business ( or lack of ) with individual
sellers .....

the feedback rating system and careful purchasing practice
, on ebay , also gives the potential buyer / seller transactional
leverage during the course of the deal.

NONE of these protections are available through a straight
usenet deal. people should NEVER buy from someone on usenet
for those reasons. make them dump it on ebay or avoid doing business
with them.

lastly ..... people never seem to learn the simple and obvious
practice of paying ( a low or bad feedback seller ) with a
convenience store money order. a seller with a 100% perfect feedback
of 150 is almost certainly not ever going to be a problem ......
but anyone can use convenience store money orders to pay ,
anytime one is concerned that the transaction might be
questionable.

anyone , anywhere , anytime can simply fill out the little refund
stub that comes with a purchased ( convenience store ) money
order ( and they doesn't even ask why ) and " presto " , in ten
days or less your money is refunded ...no questions asked ,
no delays , no problems .. just instant refund. I also have discovered
that they doesn't even bother to investigate the refunds under a few
hundred dollars. sometimes I wish they would , to get back at
thieving and scamming dirtbags that try to steal from people ...but
they ( the convenience stores ) never do , it seems. either way the
buyer is protected , unconditionally ........it doesn't get better
than that.

offering , or rather mentioning your ebay sale is a GOOD idea , here
on usenet. your message gets to the targeted audience that you want ,
people on both sides of the transaction are happy for all the ebay
protections that auction house offers. ( mainly the feedback system )
potential buyers , here , are generally happy to learn of your
( bargain ? ) ebay offer.

always protect your " e " purchases , no matter the source by using
convenience money orders when in doubt. ( paypal's refund system
is laborious and works .. but sucks for ease and convenience )

be smart ...... look at the bigger picture ........ learn to make
web purchases properly .......
